"You're too young to Quilt!" Part Two

Saturday morning Mary, (her aunt) Kathy, and I were able to sneak away from the Quilt market to go to Saturday Market in downtown Portland. It as a blazing 95 degrees outside and the streets were flooding with people walking through the market. We enjoyed doing a little shopping...and people watching. And for lunch I got a tasty Greek Gyro. Yum yum. I loved going to downtown Portland.


And this moment may have been my favorite moment of Quilt Market. Meeting Amy Butler! Mary made fun of me because I was so star struck. Amy is so beautiful and sweet. Her booth was gorgeous...of course. I am really really excited about her new Solids line. And I can't wait to purchase her new book Little Stitches. It is her new sewing book and has projects to make for kids. I am hoping she also comes out with a pattern for that darling dress she is wearing. I told her how much loved it and she said that she was coming up with a pattern for it. Yay!

It was a marvelous weekend. I am crossing my fingers that I'll get to go to Houston in October for Fall Market. Mary and I already have plans of starting a business together. We kept getting comments like "you're to young to quilt." Ha Ha. And with that said I need to go get working on my next quilt!
