Thimbles and Threads is the nearest quilt shop to my Draper home. When we lived there, I could walk the dog to Thimbles and Threads and leave him waiting patiently at the gate while I ran in for a pack of needles or a spool of thread. He knew he’d get a treat from The Dog’s Meow next door before we headed home. The book they chose was Agatha Christie’s Murder on the Orient Express. Their store was decorated with old suitcases, as if we were all about to take an exotic trip. Downstairs there was a large locked suitcase and a bowl of keys. If you chose the right key and opened the suitcase, you could take home one of the prizes inside. The lock looked very small to me, so I picked the tiniest key. It fit! I won a small package of fat quarters!
