Friday Fun Day Winner and Another Giveaway

Hi Everyone,

Today will be a fun day for me. I am hosting the Bay Area Modern Quilt Guild for a sew day at the shop maybe if I am a good girl and get my chores done I can join them for some sewing.

This week we are sponsoring a giveaway at Maureen Cracknell Handmade so you have to go over there to enter to win this:

Some Catnap by Lizzy House... go to Maureen's blog to enter.


Now it is time to pick the winner of last week's giveaway. Thanks for all of the entries...

Quilt Market... Warning Many Photos Ahead

Wow what a whirlwind.... I had so many appointments to go to that I literally only had 3 hrs to walk the floor. I saw a lot of lovelies, and brought a lot of them home, the rest will be arriving over the next 6 months or so. Do you believe they are showing Christmas 2014 already? Eeep!

First of all let me brag on my friends...


Sally (our lovely hostess for the weekend) made this gorgeous quilt in 3 days for Marcia Derse's booth at Windham:

Here is Miss Brooke with Ann Kelle... AKA Kelle Boyd and the quilt she made for her booth... so many things in the booth were made by Brooke that the mind boggles... Can you tell Brooke isn't having any fun at all here **wink Sorry for the poor lighting...

Jen Kingwell is my hero! Here are two of the patterns I picked up at Market... the rest are being shipped...

I will have them up on the website today or tomorrow.

Miss Adorable Vanessa... now you can see how huge that Sewing Machine quilt is... we are so making this!!

Miss Lizzy in her Catnap dress and with her Pearl Bracelet Nail polish (which will be in the shop in just a few days).

Carolyn Friedlander's Botanics... if you loved Architextures don't miss this one.

and one more for good measure

Lotta Jansdotter with Mormor and Sylvia

and here is a quilt made with them

Heather Bailey's Lottie Da booth that one first place for best single booth

Tula Pink's Fox Field

Of course what would a Market blog post be without a picture of the Sample Spree Haul... or two... yes, this all came home with me:

Botanics and Catnap and a little older Art Gallery for a friend
