Hello everyone I am back from the Houston Quilt Show. Had a blast but the trip was to short. I only went for one day on a tour bus. Next time I am going to spend a few days.
On Thursday I ate lunch with Patrice and her friend Peggy. I shoped till I dropped. My shoulders are aching from carrying around so much. I needed a couple of thousand bucks to buy all I wanted. It is worth going. Maybe next year we need to plan for many of us from the board to go and meet there for a few days!!!! Well took many pics og beautiful quilts will post later . Will show you through links a fes things I bought. Boughs of Pomegrantes http://www.hancocks-paducah.com/Item--i-FT-559 Home for the Holidays/ cardinals http://www.bloomcreek.com/store/prod...s/?product=144 I got to meet Judie Rothermel who designs Civil War fabric and Aunt Gracies for Marcos Bros. I even took a pic w/ her and she signed 2 books I bought. http://www.schoolhousequilts.com/ Centinnel Sampler and Reproduction Civil war quilts (books) and her Aunt Gracie bundel for Christmas What I bought and an very excited about is this applique kit . I was impressed the lady demoed it. You can make a stem that is 1/8 in wide and also small circle the size of a hole punch piece of paper. http://www.amidonquiltworks.com/notions0.php Bought some neat scissors for applique recommended by the lady at a Amidon. http://www.kaiscissors.com/ Well gotta go will post pics later!!! |
