PIQF - this could be dangerous!
 

Oh me oh my...I was just looking at the calendar and I realized I get paid the Friday before I head over to the Pacific International Quilt Festival in Santa Clara - I will be attending on Saturday & Sunday.

Not only is Friday my payday, but I am paid bi-weekly so I get an "extra" paycheck in October. Oh dear. :shock: :D

I better bring an extra shopping bag! LOL

I love PIQF...the quilts are amazing and there is so much to look at! I don't usually actually do a lot of shopping there, I'm too busy drooling over quilts from all around the world. :)

Stuff those bags .....in a back pack! Easier to carry a heavy load on your back!:D

Even better - I have a hotel room across the road, I can just go drop things off and come back with empty bags for more! MUAAHAHAHAHAAA!

I'm really hoping to score a deal on some larger Bloc-Loc rulers this year. Last year they sold out before I even got there!

Sounds like a dangerous situation to me!

I agree. sounds like a very dangerous situation. Be sure to bring your digital camera with extra batteries to spare. Have fun.

Have a great time!

Wish I could fit in your backpack.:thumbup::rolleyes: im fun but you don't know me. Oh well.

I LOVE the PIQF! It is always on or around my birthday (Oct 16). Unfortunately, this year I can't go. I had surgery on an infection in my foot in July and it is FINALLY nearly closed, but I have not been able to walk on it since the surgery. I see the doctor again on Oct 14, and he told me to bring my shoes and my walker. I will have to use the walker for a week or so, then a walking stick or cane before I can "solo". A good friend of mine offered to push me around the PIQF in a wheelchair, which is so kind of her, but I said no. Maybe next year. Anyway, have a great time! Usually, after I have looked at all the quilts on display I am simultaneously inspired and discouraged. I want to go home and throw all my machines and such in the trash. I am not this caliber of quilter, but I get inspired to BE that kind of quilter. Enjoy the PIQF, get great deals and get inspired!

Ok now have fun and there in lies the reason for the extra paycheck. So you can have fun!! So Have At It! photos please!!
