KT Bernina Quilt Shop Countdown

6 Days to Opening!

I know, I know, I've been going on and on about our opening on March 22nd. But we're so excited to finally open our doors to the public - not just for retreats, but 6 days a week! With the addition of Bernina to KT fabrics/products, we really have something to celebrate! We'll have our Grand Opening/Retreat Open House on April 26-28th. There will be giveaways - including the chance to sign up for 2 free nights at the KT Retreat - snacks and demonstations throughout the weekend. Plan a day trip - or two - and stop by KT Bernina as you Shop Hop across north/central Kansas. Stay tuned for more information.

I fell for these birds in Portland, OR a few years ago when we were shopping downtown after market, waiting to go to the airport. We walked into a gallery full of artisan jewelry, paintings, pottery and wooden bowls. So much wonderful stuff in one place. Robert and I both adore things made our of recycled junk, so the bird on a croquet ball caught out attention. Aren't they awesome? Each one is unique, the detail is incredible! I can't buy a whole flock at a time, but it's fun to search and collect them, one at a time, as we see them in our travels.


Don't miss the last few days of the countdown! And don't forget to comment for a chance to win a ruler or cross necklace!

  9. I like your birds. They remind me of some steampunk embroidery over at Urban Threads. Imagine a quilt with the embroidered birds and your birds on a side table.

    I wish your shop was closer. Your retreat house sounds delightful.
