This Little Piggy Went to Market

Greendress


Doodling on Illustrator is twice as fun as doodling on receipts in airport terminals. After 4 days at quilt market it is so nice to be home in my P.J.'s with my kids and my own computer. But WOW, was that fun.

I saw my mom and her stellar assistant Beth. I always love to see what new dolls she's created. My favorite de jour? Her body language study in grey.

I shared a room with Heather and Anna Maria (Oh the giggles). And I was labled the "schoolmarm" because I got us to bed before 3am (call me old fashioned).

I met Kaffe Fassett and looked like a complete nerd by blubbering my lifetime adoration of his work. (He is the king of color.)

I watched seemingly innocent quilting grannies dance like they were in a college sorority. (I boogied down a bit myself with Gina from The Threaded Pear.)

I ran into Val and Dianne from my favorite quilting shop, who kept trying to get pictures of me and Heather checking each other's teeth.


Needless to say it was a grand adventure, and I'm not exactly sure how I got away with leaving the kids to play for a weekend.

I am so sad, I couldn't see the green dress when I clicked on the link. All I got was a dark black box.
