...like a day without sunshine. Bacon, chocolate croissants, bran muffins, black tea and some quality time with a quilty friend. I'm not sure what's better than that. Working isn't interfering with having a great time!
Last night was the trunk show at Fabric Crush. It was an enthusiastic, supportive crowd. They came, I talked, we talked, and many of us indulged in our favorite activity, fabric shopping.
It was so great to connect with old friends, meet virtual friends and make new friends as well. Thanks for coming and making me feel so welcome! Thanks to Sarah of Fabric Crush and my friend Katie for inviting me. It was almost better than bacon.
Wish I had been there - but felt like I was sorta there with the email from Katie :-)

ReplyDeleteGotta love bacon, but oh how nice it would have been to be at your trunk show!! You know you could have had bacon appetizer there and it would have been just perfect! LOL
ReplyDeleteNever mind the bacon, I'm sure the quilts you brought were all a feast for the eyes and inspiriation 'bugs' in everyone who was there - I'd love to have been one of them

I'm so jealous! I wanted to go so bad! I'm not even that far away, but it just didn't work out. :(
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had a great time! Speaking of bacon, have you ever had it with brown sugar? Sounds strange, tastes like heaven. Pig Candy.
ReplyDeleteWhat a perfect day! Doesn't get any better especially with the bacon and chocolate croissants. Oh yeah, and the fabric shopping too!

ReplyDeleteHI Jacquelyn,
ReplyDeleteIt was such fun to meet you today at Pink Chalk Studio. What a great trip your having. I enjoyed hearing your passion for fabric. Your blog is a wealth of wonderful goodies.

It was wonderful to meet you and to see your beautiful quilts. So glad you shared.
ReplyDeleteIt was great to meet you! Your quilts were very lovely and very inspiring. I'm just learning how to quilt and I love the modern style! I'm happy to see it in more designs. Plus, I tend to have quilt lines like you described...the "organic ones" I love that term and will be using it!
ReplyDeleteYou are my kinda girl! So sorry I missed your Seattle appearance!
ReplyDeleteit's early on a sunday morning, i'm sitting here at the computer, before breakfast, and suddenly my tummy is rumbling and i'm craving a plate of bacon and eggs........when i should be eating fruit and yoghurt
