I'm Ready......

The shop is all set...
ready, waiting patiently
{or not}
for Robin to bring her wares into the shop....

we talked last night,
about meeting up this coming Sunday
to bring a load from her old shop to here.

as you can see from the pictures,
I've kept the shop open & airy...

creating space for her,
and making a cozy little spot for the
Men Folk, or perhaps
just a quiet place to stitch or hook...


Speaking of Hooking,
please don't forget that
the first Saturday of Each Month
is
Open Hooking
here in the shop....
10 - 3

the Classroom is back where it should be,
as are all of the pattern models...

all needlework supplies can be found in the Classroom...

the picture below
shows a nice view of the Classroom ~

Robin is bringing in her "Old Tyme" front counter
that we'll put in the space shown in the pic below.


and I'll be sewing up some primitive swag curtains for the windows...
a brown/cream homespun ticking that will be one panel,
and tied back on one side with string....


...just Farm-Fresh and Simple!

(I'll share more pics soon of the progress)
Until then, keep thinking "Crisp & Cool".....

Blessings from the Farm,
Lori

Hi Lori,
Your shoppe looks fantastic. I cannot wait to come see it in person. It almost makes me wish I hadn't closed my shoppe. What I really miss are the great people who stopped by. Talking about our shared passion was so special.
You and Robin are going to have so much fun.
