I want to share with everyone what I did last weekend. Last Saturday I went to the Phoenix Quilt, Craft, & Sewing Festival. I didn't think that I would be able to go this year, but I was given a little bit of money from the kids so that I could go. DH wasn't up to going with me this year so I went alone. It was a very low pain day, something that I haven't had in a while. I spent 6 hours taking my time walking around and looking at everything. I got a couple of patterns. One is the Enchanted Fairy Cottages, which I am going to make for my granddaughters. And the 2nd is the Little Purse, which is really neat. It is a needle box kit. When you open up the purse all the sides lay flat. Maybe a possible future swap gift. I also got some quilting stencils and some fabric. One of the fabrics that I got was a layer cake of hand dyed bright colors. The booth that I got it at had the most amazing hand dyed fabrics. If I had more money I would have went crazy there. I had a wonderful day and some very much needed me time. Here are the pictures of the patterns that I got.
Here is the website for the Enchanted Fairy Cottages pattern:http://clothdollpatterns.com/patterns1/id18.htm

OK, Robyn, I am not doing the swap this month (my family insists on having too darn many birthdays in the next couple of months), but I noticed your one post about being the package inspector. Getting a little devious, are we?
Sounds like you had a good day at the show. I am going to check out the websites, and I am also going to try to do that embroidered heart. Thanks for the info!
