Back from Portland

I said I would blog from the road, but I didn't.  I didn't have time.  At the end of each day, I would run back to my hotel room to practice my new quilting techniques.

Really, I was out eating, drinking and carrying on all the time.   Portland is fun, I met up with fun people I already knew, and met many new ones that are fun.  Fun, fun, fun.  All that from Quilt Market.  A friend emailed me while I was gone wanting to know why I had gone to a Quilting Bee!  When, oh when, will they change the name of this show!!!!  Anyway, I digress.

Modern Flora was the star of the show (in my mind anyway).  Despite my concerns, it did very well at the show.  Observe the very interested buyer studying the fabric and taking notes in the pictures above.  (That was not a setup-- actually she thought I wanted a picture of the display so she moved out of the picture!)  And that exact display is on its way to Fabric Depot in Portland, Oregon (about the largest fabric store in the world) to shine for a few more weeks.  Jessica Jones rocks!

I did take more pictures and have more to share, but I'll do it in multiple posts because I don't want to bore you to tears.  I had a great time, but it is nice to be home and a certain little girl is very clingy today!

Hey Caroline! It was fun to meet you at market and get to know a bit more about the fabric industry. Maybe I'll see you in Houston!
