Family & Friends,  Pets,  Quilt Market

Home again

Quilt Market was wonderful.   My booth was part of what Moda calls ” The Designer Studio”.  Many of the Moda designers shared space, making up 2 long rows of booth space with no walls in-between.   Being surround by my favorite Moda designers was so much fun and we had a great time.

Here’s a photo of one side of the Designer Studio.   Barb and Mary have a great blog post showing all the Moda designers at market.  Thank goodness Barb and Mary thought to take the photos of everyone.

Moda’s Designer Studio ended up winning a ribbon for Best Merchandising!

And when I came home guess who came along for the ride to pick me up at the airport?  Chelsea!

Chelsea

She hates it when I’m on a trip.  She knows I’m leaving the minute she sees the suitcases come out of the closet.

She has a pink car seat that she loves, and when my husband pulled up to get me, there she was in her car seat.  I was so surprised.  I don’t know who was more excited, me or her!  It takes a little over an hour for us to get to the airport, so it wasn’t a short ride for her.

If you take your small dog in the car, it’s a good idea to get a car seat.  If you’re looking for a great safety car seat for your dog, here’s where I got hers: In The Company of Dogs  .  Expensive yes, but not much more than a fat quarter bundle.

Today is Lily’s Birthday!

I can’t believe my granddaughter Lily turns 2 today!  She’s celebrating in Germany, so far away!   I just got this photo of her a few minutes ago.  She’s turning into such a little girl!

Lily turns 2

I’ll be flying to Germany in the middle of June to visit and I’m taking my other two granddaughters with me!   This is the first time they’ve been to Germany so the excitement is building for all of us.

Hope you’re all having  a great weekend.  I’m cleaning up the studio and catching up on paperwork.  It’s good to be home!

    How fortunate you are to have her and your others also. So sweet to have little misses, with all you have that is so feminine, it is perfect that you have them. They are soooooo fortunate to have a great grandmother like you also. How wonderful for them to realize how special you are in their eyes and the fun projects you always have going for us and them too as they grow up.

    Glad you had a great time. Love your projects of course, just wish I had a staff to help me do all your special designs. hehe

    Oh who would not melt coming home to that precious face. I’m sure Chelsea’s world is right when mamma comes home. Thank you for your kindness towards the most innocent among us.

    Have a wonderful time on your trip to see your grand toddler.
