Greetings friends & neighbors…
Anyway, totally got side tracked there….
As I sat down to write, one of my office gals reminded me that I had never really finished posting all the "goings on" at Spring Market. I know, I know, but it just seems SO late now to do it. But here goes the VERY LAST OF MY SPRING MARKET WRAP UPS…. until I remember something else in a month of so!
Book Signing
Thank you SO MUCH for going over to INSTAGRAM these past few days and commenting…

Great hubby you have! Congrats on your very well-deserved award. I recently took a project on vacation to my desert home because that is where it NEEDED to be photographed. My hubby helps and puts up with my photography whims. :o)

Hi Joanna,
congrats on the well deserved award! Had to smile because you first thought you did something wrong (I’m a bit like you…often think I’ll get scolded for something I did unintentionally wrong ;o) ).
Thanks for another Market Recap – I can only speak for myself but I doubt I’m the only one who can’t get enough {…while I read your blog I fondled the Mill House Inn FQB I got hold of at ebay….I LOVE the new line…and I thought the last one was my favourite…I can’t wait to cut into the bundle of gorgeousness!!!Have to buy some time, too, that I can get started}.
Cheers, Julia

I HAD to read all the way to the end — it was fascinating! Congratulations on your booth award and record-breaking book sales. Your quilts are beautiful.

Man, you guys are sure WEIRD…
Great post- even if it is a tad on the late side. Next time, I’ll make you stay at my booth until the scooter comes to find you. Then I’ll just snatch the award and jump up and down with excitement and pretend I won. It’s the perfect plan.
Jocelyn | 8th Jul 09
Still reading to the end 🙂 Congrats on your award!
Joanna | 8th Jul 09
Yes, we really are that weird! But it seems that I have heard of another couple somewhere in the vicinity of Las Vegas that might not only rival but beat us out in that category! Anyone? 🙂

You are welcome! It was great to read – I’ve never attended but hope to in the future. You certainly deserved the award!!
Camille Roskelley | 8th Jul 09
Nope, nobody I can think of. Seriously, I think you guys might be our “couple twins” if there is such a thing. Our husbands are so alike it is a little frightening!

hmmm, I always read to the end of your stories! And I so admire a man that helps with any aspect of the quilting process-either the makig or the showing. And although I am sure they come to see your stuff, I think Eric’s legs might be the real draw!!!! lol
Robin | 9th Jul 09
I am laughing myself silly right now. I have the pictures of this running through my mind like a mini movie! You really deserve the award..your booths are always so inspiring and yummy. No matter where you are at, Market or PIQF or others. Love looking at your pics and most of all standing in your booths! Thanks for sharing your stories. My guess is the cat calls are not for your quilts. Oohs and ahhs for quilts…whistles for the assistant Eric.

That was abusy time you had! I love the music on your website!

Last weekend over the 4th I took some great photos of projects and this week have had terrible luck with weather… and then I read your post… oh so funny!
Sharon in FL | 11th Jul 09
Um, maybe some of each? Quilts & Legs! Love coming to your blog and finding a new post to read – no matter the length it’s always worth it. Thanks for the recap and great “photography” story!
Carrie P. | 12th Jul 09
Lots going on. So busy.
Lisa Gray | 13th Jul 09
Congratulations on the merchandising award. Yes, I am most definitely a huge fan of your work!! The fabrics, the patterns, and who can resist quilts with legs?! : )
