A Quilting Store
Today I had to pick up my painting which was on display in the window of the used bookstore. The man who owns this shop is retired and is doing the bookstore as a hobby. He doesn't feel that he has to be there at regular hours. He doesn't open until 11 and sometimes he doesn't come in then. I arrived at a few minutes before 11 and the store was still closed.
While I waited I decided to go into the sewing store beside the bookstore. I'd never been in it. I never was good at sewing and I don't really try much any more, but the displays in this store were both beautiful and inviting. I asked a lot of questions about the displays and about sewing. The name of the store is My Sewing Room, and the owner told me that it's mostly quilters who buy from her.
At the front of her store, she has a display of patchwork kites. I thought it was a very creative display. She made all her kites herself. She said that they weren't meant to fly but perhaps one could figure a way to make a fabric patchwork quilt which would fly. Hers are meant to hang on the wall.
By the time I was done asking questions and noticing things of interest, the bookstore was open and I got my painting and came home.
