To Market and beyond!

This is me, my mom, and sisters on the first day of Market!
(I tried to post this on Thursday with my mobile app but something wouldn't work, sorry!)

We had such an amazing time! We went to school houses by Sandi Henderson, Amy Butler, Carolee of Adorn It!, Lila Tueller, lots of Moda Ladies, and visited so many amazing booths it's hard to remember them all!

I got some great pics and some awful pics but I'll try to mix it up!
By the way, if anyone has any good tips on getting good pics from your iphone :) let me know!

First I have some Sandi Henderson pics. I love her new line of fabric it's called Secret Garden and it's gorgeous! I even love the names of her different colorways!

Check out some of them here. I love the way Sandi displays her fabrics!
All my schoolhouse pics are the bad ones but here is Sandi giving her presentation she wasn't feeling well but her presentation was awesome! We're super excited for Sandi here!
Secret Garden pillows... I wonder if Sandi does all her own sewing? No I didn't ask sorry!
This pic I love! Because I swear this is the same rabbit I made when my mom first taught me and my sisters to sew. It went together just fine until I got to the head mine was stitched and un-stitched so many times I finally just had to cut out a new one and try it again!
So it was super fun for me to se this little guy done up in super cute fabric and looking gorgeously updated from his muslin predecessors!
This next pic is Sarah Jane! She is an adorable new designer with Michael Miller!
Love some of these fabrics from her line!


Joel Dewberry's booth was stunning
Check the colors! Love them!

Lila Tueller at schoolhouse!
Woohoo! I was even lucky enough to get some of her fabric from sample spree! Aaah! Can't wait to play!
And this of course is the so talented Anna Maria Horner's booth!
I just love her and her style!
One of my big thrill moments was meeting Camille Roskelley. Here's a pic of her and her mom at Moda's schoolhouse. Again sorry for the awful pic she talked about a cute project coming up in September that everyone's going to enjoy!
Unfortunately I was so worried about not seeming crazy that I didn't get any pics from her booth, but you've been catching glimpses of Ruby around and I know you all love it as much as I do!

I'm totally excited about this fabric I got from Pat Bravo who designs for her company Art Gallery Fabrics. Honestly I've searched and searched and can't figure out what line it is but Bohemian Soul is her new line coming out and it's stunning!
I also got a pack of Tidbits by Kari Ramsay of Fresh Cut Quilts! Love them!

Fun and Anxiety don't mix.

I'm in love with these awesome little magnets just thought you should know.

Aside from my teeny tiny love affair you may want to see this little mini quilt.
I finished this last Sunday but haven't shown you, my dear friends, because I immediately started in on finishing my fabric design for the Michael Miller/Spoonflower contest!

The contest has a baby boy theme. I'm super excited and going a little crazy with fear that mine won't even get chosen to vote on! Aaaah! Don't get me wrong, I love my fabric, I'd already been working on it for my little boy, and I've gotten lots of great feedback, but letting something I love that much go to someone else's decision is a little rough. You can go here to see the designs I've been playing with on spoonflower. Not available for sale yet but at least you can see 'em. :)

Anyway that's my anxiety but once the 24th passed I was able to get back into a little bit of my fun and that's when I met and fell in love with these bitty magnets!
This is my planned packet for my awesome DQS10 partner!
I hope she likes it. I do and I'm not a cat person!
But I love the colors and the design is right up my alley :)
I have to be inspired by something to do anything with it so swaps always take me a little longer than I'd like because I can't talk to the person about what they really want!

I've had some fun and I'm gonna top it off with some vintage Barbie love!

Hope you guys are havin' fun too!
The 31st is coming soon and I'll know if I get to be part of the Michael Miller/Spoonflower contest! Wish me luck!
