To Market. To Market.

Just in case you didn't have the honor/pleasure/trip-of-a-lifetime to go to Houston for the International Quilt Market ... do not, I repeat, do NOT feel alone. Most of us are looking from the sidelines and living vicariously through Claudia and her crew who took the trip with their bags full of quilts and their hearts full of ... us. Here we are in Claudia's booth with Claudia, Sandee Streech, Mary Lewkowitz, and Pat Andrews.

Here is Claudia with Eileen LaRoche. Claudia said, "Eileen Roche who puts out DESIGNS in Machine Embroidery! She said she would create a grid for the Magna Hoop so my designs could be sewn out in her hoops!!"

You probably recognize these fellow AZ-ers ... Renee Plains of Liberty Star and Cindy Taylor Oates of Taylor Made. We AZ quilters like to stick together.

Here we have people mulling around the booth because ... well ... who wouldn't want to mull in the center of so much creative fun.

Thanks Claudia for the pics and the chance to hop in your lovely, embroidered pocket for the ride of a lifetime.
