My experience with the All Ohio Shop Hop

First of all, what is the Ohio Shop Hop? The Shop Hop event features a magazine, exclusive fabrics, giveaways, patterns and prizes. The Shop Hop starts with getting the magazine. The All Ohio Shop Hop Magazine is your guide to all things about the event. In addition, you will find patterns, articles and resources for sewing and quilting. Your magazine will include an official Passport. Regional and state maps are included in the magazine to help you plan your routes. Each year we have custom fabric designed exclusively for the All Ohio Shop Hop. The fabric is sold only at Shop Hop stores during the event.

Share Four Somethings July 2024

It really is true, the older you get, the faster time goes. Even when you are trying to slow down and cherish the moments. I can't believe we are at the end of July.

Not too many updates in this section this time. Basically, not much has changed.

Share Four Somethings-May 2024

We continue to have a lot going on, with transitions and stuff, some family members health, etc. I have been working 6 days a week since January, and I thought with quitting my nanny job I would be able to cut back, but we are still playing catch up with our sewing business, so 6 days a week is still the norm, sadly. I am hopeful that we will get caught up this month and things will be more manageable, and we go back to 5-days a week of work, but we will see.

25th Anniversary Trip

Hi Friends, this past week, Matt and I celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary!! It does not feel like it has been that many years!! To which we are both very thankful for 😂😂 Anyway, we decided we would not let another anniversary go by without doing anything for it. And, as this was a "big" one, we decided to go to Michigan to get away for a bit (we chose Michigan because it is a state we had not been to yet, and it was closer to home). We left Saturday afternoon, and came home Wednesday afternoon. This will be a mostly pictorial post without a lot of dialogue of what we did! We stayed in Kalamazoo and traveled from there. By the way, each time you get to a coffee picture you have entered a new day 😂.
