Spring in Salt Lake City ……

“All right girls, SHOW ME YOUR BOOGIE”!  Although I’m not sure this is their “boogie”?  Not quite sure what I told them to do for this picture? But it’s a great picture isn’t it!! These are my really good “market buddies”, Elizabeth of Late Bloomer Quilts, (that’s a picture of her booth) and yes it’s true, that’s Pam Kitty Morning herself!! These girls both have quite a following, and yet they have time for us “little people”! Pam has been so helpful and encouraging to me with this blog.  I know there are times she hangs up the phone or reads an e-mail and thinks to herself; “what did I get myself into!”  And, HEY, that’s a great floor isn’t it?  It looks just like mine! Ok, maybe a little newer and cleaner than mine.

As promised, I’m going to try to keep you entertained and informed about my little corner of the “quilting world” so I thought you might enjoy seeing pictures from spring 2007 International Quilt Market in Salt Lake City, Utah. So here are just a few………

Isn’t this the sweetest booth? I just met Meg from Crabapple Hill at this market, although I’ve seen her at previous market’s, I’ve never had opportunity to talk to her. Not only did I visit her booth frequently, but they stayed at the same hotel, and we saw them at dinner and in the hallways!  You learn a lot about a person when you see what they order for a meal! Not really, I don’t even remember what I ate!  I’m lucky to remember my name after a day at market. So much to see, and touch, and buy……….  After all I do have a store to buy for now!  I know I’m already selling out of her winter and snowman patterns and have to order more! They’re adorable, and look at that fabulous pillow!!  I think I might try to get to know her better so maybe she’ll want to GIVE me that pillow! Right!!

I know I am not the best photographer,

but I had to take this shot from the plane.

Is this scenery awesome or what! God really

knew what he was doing didn’t He!

Pretty spectacular!! I’ll show you more later!

Hmmm...I do not remember "posing" for that picture at all. I'd really like to know what the SLC Starbucks put in our drinks.
