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!

    Welcome HOME! You must have had a wonderful time but it always is good to be home again! And what a surprise for CHELSEA and yourself. Lily looks lovely–our only granddaughter, Reagan, was just here celebrating her 2nd birthday also! What fun! And our oldest son was born in Frankfort,Germany so I indeed envy your travels back there. We loved it there. Take care!

    It looks like Quilt Market was wonderful. I visited Barb and Mary’s blog, great pictures with lots of smiles. Lily is so sweet…she looks like her Grandma!! OMG they grow up so fast, it seems like only yesterday you were waiting her arrival. What fun you will have taking your 2 granddaughters with you to Germany…making memories with Grandma they will cherish forever. Chelsea sure is a cutie…love her big brown eyes. Have a wonderful time visiting your family in Germany. Hugs from Michigan, Pauline
