    Did you see elephants? I read that elephants might be replacing owls in designs and patterns. I loved all the owls but think elephants have some cute possibilities too.

    Love all your new books and the colorful fabric, but most of all the zig zags.

    I would totally live to add “Make it Sew Modern” to my library but I also love the butterflies and flowers! It would be perfect to make something for the little girl I am expecting in September 🙂

    I see you have some ‘Bella’ and the mini charms are so cute – are these on sale to the general public?? I’ve never seen them!
    I’m so looking forward to Elizabeth Hartmann’s new book – it’s top of my amazon wishlist!!

    Wow, what a great batch of inspiration you came home with. If only we could collect the time to make all these great projects and use up all this great fabric!

    Wow, what a cool bunch of stuff! I love those little itty bitty charms, like the Kona – do you have anything in mind for those? I saw a great post on a quilt that had little scraps with raw edges sewn on to the top of the quilt (sheesh, I have no idea what that’s called) anyway, it would be cute with all of those pre-cut pretty squares! Great way to display some of your favorite fabrics, anyway!

    Fun stuff. Let someone else have the giveaway. Do you know the Regina Owens who comments on your blog? I went to school with a Regina Owens. How weird would that be???

  18. Linda June 11, 2012 at 1:11 pm #

    HELLO! LOVE ALL YOUR QUILTY ITEMS! I THINK I SEE ITTY BITTY’S! THANKS FOR SHARING!

    I like everything you bought at sample spree ( wow – what a lot of fabric). In the bottom photo, the top fabric caught my eye(Cocoon?), little apples, and the pastel zig zag. In the book pile there is a book I have a yen to possess — Modern Patch Work. In the goodies arena – Bella, any of the little minis, aurifil thread — though cannot tell what some of the remaining items are… just heightens the mystery! You did well! I’m so glad you had a good time while working so hard at Market.

  20. Sasha June 11, 2012 at 2:38 pm #

    mmmmmmm….you got lots of yummies at market!!! How is the modern patchwork book? I need to look that one up =D

  21. Jennie P. June 11, 2012 at 3:40 pm #

    Looks like you could go swimming in all that loot! I see some Cocoon in there by Valori Wells. So pretty! And looks like you have some awesome books too.

  22. Allison C June 11, 2012 at 3:42 pm #

    I spy Bella and I’m jealous! I can’t wait to get my hands on it, but I will have to wait a couple more months. So sad.

  23. AlyceB June 11, 2012 at 5:59 pm #

    Ooh, Little Apples! I love that print in particular with the grey and red – it’s so cute!

    I can’t wait to get my hands on Cuzco and Simply Color 😀

    Market shopping had to be difficult…so many wonderful fabrics, books and notions calling your name. How to pick and choose?! Fabrics would be my downfall. I’ve read the mini charms are going to be available to the general public later this year. I’m looking forward to projects made with those. Happy Sewing.

  25. Sandy D June 11, 2012 at 6:44 pm #

    Such great looking fabrics.I love your black and I think grey fat quarters.

  26. Karen June 11, 2012 at 7:37 pm #

    Awesome fabrics. I can’t imagine what the market was like. Were you like a kid in the candy store?

  27. Cecilia June 11, 2012 at 8:22 pm #

    Wow! I love all of the goodies you brought home. I’m interested in the book Modern Patchwork and the little 2 1/2 charms. Thanks for sharing.

  28. B Greene June 11, 2012 at 9:13 pm #

    Looks like so many fabulous goodies!! The Make it so Modern book is one I’m interested in. And the mini charms (I can’t remember what they’re called…) 🙂

  34. Pam June 12, 2012 at 11:36 pm #

    How much fun. I had to enlarge one of your photos because the blue really caught my eye. So cool, Lotta Jansdotter fabric! I haven’t seen that print before, is it a new line? I will have to look for it, blue is my favorite.

  35. Fran June 13, 2012 at 3:31 am #

    Wow, that’s an amazing haul of Quilt Market goodies! It all looks fantastic but the Bella fabrics & Aurifil threads look particularly lovely to me.

  36. njeri June 13, 2012 at 7:50 am #

    Wow, what a haul. I wish I was you right now ;).
    Is that Kona I see in the second picture?
    You have a lovely blog.

    Want to get my hands on Sunday morning quilts, for sure! Looks like it is just up my alley. I love the multicolored chevron fabric in your last photo. Divine!
