Today I went with Dawn and Gail (no blog) to the annual Las Vegas Shop Hop (Gail was our driver for the day…Thanks Gail)! We had a great time. First stop was at Fiddlesticks in Boulder City, Nevada. Fiddlesticks is located in Old Town Boulder City where there are many quaint and wonderful shops; Boulder City is a small town on the way to Lake Mead where the many people who built Hoover Dam lived and worked back in the 1930’s.
What a great day…now I want to sew!

How fun!!! I’ve never done an official shop hop but I have done several quilt shops in a day. Is Fabric Boutique the HUGE one in Vegas? I remember when Henderson was nothing but a few houses. I used to live in 29 Palms, CA and the drive to Vegas was a long, boring and desolate one. Anyway you picked up some great fabrics. Especially the teapot one.

I’ve never ever encountered the bird print or the teapot print!! Who makes the teapot print. I’ll be looking for the bird print RIGHT NOW!
Nanette Merrill and daughters says
Ok, duh. I reread. I was so exited I missed “In the beginning”. 🙂
Kevin and Vicki says
Wow! Those are some pretty crazy prints. Have fun with those…

That shop hop looks like fun. A couple of years ago, my husband was to have a business trip to LA and we were going to visit Las Vegas just for fun. It was to be the weekend of their shop hop. Then the trip got rescheduled and so I missed the shop hop. Made it to all the shops you mentioned except the one in Boulder City. I won’t miss that one next time! Thanks for sharing!
Mel says
