Spring Quilt Market Part One!

Just like the button says, I am a Quilter. Capital Q. I love it, love the fabric, love the patterns, everything. Mostly, really really love the people. And lets start with some of my favorites.

Here's Elizabeth, Laurie, Carrie and Kathy Schmitz! You couldn't meet four nicer women. Seriously. Don't make me get all weepy here.
That cute box Laurie showed on her blog was chock full of that cute fabric in the top picture. Vintage cherry fabric. Wow, couldn't get better than that!!! There are some wonderful pictures of her booth on her blog, so check it out. And she's so generous, displaying my purse there.

In fact, these ladies from The New Ewe saw it in the Minnick and Simpson booth and wanted to know where to get the pattern. They said they liked that it didn't look like the average quilter's purse, more like something you'd buy. They totally get me. So thank you Laurie and thanks Cathie and Pat!

Here's more favorites, Kaari, Whitney, Holly and Sandy. Kaari's new line of fabric is debuting and its lovely. I'm sure you all know about her story, if not, check her website. I'm lucky to have been to her shop when it was open.

Here's Angela getting setup to show off Fabricmatcher or the Moda Bake Shop. She had the cutest lanyard project on the Moda Bake Shop that I will be making for next market. Very clever Angela!

Here's Carrie. This is the first time we met in person, but we're blog buddies. She brought me those wonderful cherry candies above. She knew they were totally me and they are!!! Her quilts are so wonderful. I love that she's not afraid to make something challenging.

I know there's been some talk on her blog about the binding clips. Lets just say it wasn't an exaggeration.

I love the pincushions. Super cute, and in the jar.. so amazing. There was one in that jar that was blue, I just wanted to snatch that right out. It looked perfect. Well even more perfect.



Speaking of perfect, you can count on the perfectly cute Camille and Bonnie to have some wonderful projects out there.

And now here are the photos of Tammy at the announcement. I really love Tammy and the women who work for her. She is everything you could hope for in a friend. I wish I had better pictures of her and Miss Sherry.

Tammy, Sherry and Mindy are rocking the Hello Kitty (fake) Tattoos in my honor!!! They really know me!!! I have a pack of those tattoos and a pack of HK band aids for next market. Thanks girls!

Ok hope you enjoyed round one. Stay tuned.
