"You say it's your birthday...it's my birthday too"

I'm kinda freaking out. We're 23!

Inspire Me

I have been loving Wiksten-Made for some time now but the latest photo shoot and spring/summer collection has me really excited. I love the simplicity and the clean look of each piece, yet it feels so unique. I study these photographs figuring out how to make them myself. But dang I wish I could afford one of her creations!

Ma and Pa

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY Mom and Dad! You two are the best.

scream and shout

Last night we made the trek to SLC to see Ghostland Observatory. It was my 3rd time seeing them and it won't be my last. They put on an amazing show every time. This show felt more intimate. And by intimate I mean the lead singer (Aaron) stage dove and his Booty was on my face. Yep. I felt cool! Maggie, Willard, Bethany and I fought our way to the front. The VERY front. And it was incredible. During the last song Willard looks at me and says "get on stage." I was hesitant because of the stage crew, but what the heck so I did it and I danced my heart out. Maggie and Willard soon joined me! I wish I had pictures to prove how cool I am but I guess you'll just have to believe me.

This was after the show. Sweaty and Gross...but HAPPY. Check out Janes blog for her report on last nights show.

"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!
