Enjoy your time at the balloon fiesta might even run into you at one of the shops. I just returned last week from a fantastic trip to Pueblo where I attended a Mystery Trip to Jalisco at Stitchers Garden. Woohoooooooooo SEW much fun but then again I always love that part of your state.

Hi Connie! I just moved here to Arizona from Albuquerque. Enjoyed the balloons for many, many years. I hope you enjoy them. The Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta actually has a newsletter that may give you some great information for attending. I imagine you can just go to their website if you haven't already.

Also, there is a Southwest Decoratives LQS on Carmel near San Pedro and Paseo Del Norte (north on San Pedro from Paseo Del Norte, left on Carmel, and will be on the right side)(not far from the balloon fiesta neighborhood). If you get a chance, that would be a wonderful shop to visit. I miss it!

There is also a great one in Corrales...beautiful fabrics. I can't wait to go back at Thanksgiving to shop!

Have a great time!
