I can count on one hand how many times I've walked into a quilt store and not bought anything.
Yesterday wasn't one of those days.
With "quilt celebrities" hanging around to chat with, I was having so much fun
that the fabric and patterns just worked their way into my hands and out the door.
I met the designer of this adorable quilt, Lemonade Stand, that was published in America Patchwork
Quilting this month. Patricia Frei was as nice as can be! Look, I even have a signed copy by her!
You can buy a laser cut kit at Quilted Works to make one or look for the magazine.
The fabrics in the quilt are Moda's "Little Miss Sunshine" by designer Vanessa Goertzen. I met her,
too! She was so sweet, but I found that standing next to her caused me to buy a couple of her patterns.
She didn't even have to twist my arm because they were so cute! She blogs over at Lella Boutique.
You can find her patterns in her shop. These are the two I bought...love them!
I also met Natalie Bonner from Piece N Quilt ...oh my gosh that woman can quilt!
Her work is amazing and she is such a nice lady, too! Check out her blog to see her work.
Bea from Beaquilter won the laser kit from Quilted Works.
Congratulations, Bea!
Time to sew some of the cool fabrics and patterns I bought at Quilted Works.
So many fun projects...so little time!
Oh, Carol, I'm so envious! To meet all three at once! I'd love to meet Natalia! She's done a couple of quilts got me, and are they ever beautiful! Have fun with your new purchases! XO
