I went to market! I have ‘beans’ to spill, as Camille would say. But I am not ready to spill them here, yet!
I had so much fun, met some super cool peeps, and got to see all of those famous people whose blogs I study more religiously than I should. I had a great day seeing shops and lunching with some super cool ladies. I don’t want to tell you how nervous I was to meet them, but I was. And they were just as fabulous in real life. So, thanks, ladies, for hanging out with me!
Then there was sample spree (that isn’t me, this is just a random shot of the moda booth.)
When you first walk in, market is so huge and a bit overwhelming. So, today I set out ot conquer my fear of large arenas. I wandered aisle after aisle of gorgeous patterns, inspiration, and (of course) fun, new fabrics! I introduced myself to a few new people (and tried not to geek out:) ). And I was careful to not drool on Anna Maria Horners new voiles.

And of course I didn’t make it out of sample spree empty handed. I found so many beautiful fabrics, it was tough to choose, but I came home with these:
So, tomorrow I am headed back to market again! If there are any pictures you want to see, let me know and I’ll grab them for you! The whole experience of having Spring Market in Salt Lake City, being able to drive up and back without staying at a hotel and even getting to meet people from blog and flickrland is so fun for me! I can’t wait for tomorrow!

How exciting!! Market is great. I can’t wait to hear more about your beans… I’d love to see more of Sandi Henderson’s new line and Far, Far Away III if you get the chance. Really I’m just happy to drool over any and all market pics. ; )
Erin says
What beans?! You better tell me! So so glad we got to meet – will you be there tomorrow (or is it today?) night?
Lara says
So very jealous! I can’t wait for Sarah Jane’s new line to be released… Children at Play is a favourite. Love your bundles!

I can’t believe I haven’t come across your blog before! I’ll have to add it to my (very long) reader list. 🙂
Is there anything new from Heather Bailey at the Market?

I was at spring market 2008 in Portland. Isn’t sample spree the best? How fun for you!

Wow! I can’t wait to see Little Apples in the flesh!
