Nashville or bust……

Yes, we’re back! As many of you know we have been at the AQS show in Nashville. Held at the Gaylord Opryland Hotel and Convention Center. We had a FABULOUS time!! And I am so proud of myself, I actually took our trailer and Laura 2 and I pulled that baby all over the place! I was so scared to try to drive my vehicle pulling that little trailer for the last year or so that we’ve had it. But, surprisingly enough the Lord just gave me peace about it this time. I just made up my mind, there was no other way, and I was going to have to do it. However, I can’t back it yet... so I just made sure wherever I went, I had a “way out” and didn’t have to back out. That worked great until the last day of the show, when I knew I was going to have to find someone to back it for me. Laura 2 found a man who had a trailer of his own and asked him to back it for us. According to him, he is the “world’s best trailer backer”, and I was willing to let him believe that as long as he was willing to put the trailer right where I wanted it. And, ya know what….. he earned that title! He IS the world’s best trailer backer as far as I’m concerned!! Mr. A-1 Quilting was an answer to prayer!

Here is a picture of our booth in our favorite corner. We have a great spot at this show. We saw lots of old friends and made tons of new ones. It was a great show! I will be showing you some of our other quilt friends who had booths at this show as well, later. I'll be showing you lots of goodies that I bought too! I bought 2 new sewing machines. One for my oldest son, Nick who is a new quilter, maybe you saw his quilt from a previous post and the other machine is for my youngest daughter, Haley (she's 11). So, now mom gets her sewing machine back and Nick can sew 'til his little hearts content!!

I also took tons of pictures of show quilts and I have pictures from our New Girl class.

Here is my mommy and I with all of our pink and green. The only thing missing is the green aprons. This was such a nice spot for a picture. Isn't my mom the cutest!

I have so much more to show you. Come back and see more AQS quilt show pictures and food, fabric and flowers!
