Spring Market Take Two


 
Amy Butler's new line of yarn, I can't wait to knit something with it.

Anna Maria Horner signing my books.

 
Adorable baby booties from her new book Handmade Beginnings!!

 Anna Maria and I on the lovely couch in her booth.

Heather Bailey and I (my bag is made from her Saturday Market Tote pattern, in Nicey Jane Fabric, her newest line.)
                                My mom and I with designer Joel Dewberry


I am currently sitting on my bed, watching episodes of Daria, while I try to recount the highlights of my first Spring Quilt Market. One would definitely be Pam twirling in the middle of the street and pretending to toss a hat up in the air like Mary Tyler Moore (the conference was in Minneapolis.) Others are meeting Anna Maria Horner and Heather Bailey, two of my favorite textile designers. Sample Spree was interesting...a bunch of crazy quilters running, literally running, to get fabric at super discounted prices. We did get some cute things though, some nice fabric from art gallery, kokka, and seven islands, and a few really cute patterns. I met a lot of nice people and generally had a good time hanging out with my mom and Pam.
