At the airport

So, it's late afternoon on the Thursday before quilt market, and the first time that I have had a chance to blog in a while....it has been that crazy. I am in an airport, waiting for my flight to Houston for Market. It's the first time that I will have my own booth, and to be honest, I am nervous, and I am not usually the nervous type.....

Anyway, here's some fun stuff that happened lately that I haven't had time to post....

This is my Feathered Star Queen the night before vacation ended.....I did get the backgrounds all sewed in before I left Montana....but I have not sewed a single stitch on it since I got back. Market prep has kept my crazy busy....so excited to get back to it next week! Seriously, there is only 3 or 4 hours of sewing left on this one, and I am looking forward to it!

This is a Penny's Glacier Star mini ---- we called it "the Thang" while we were in Montana. Penny fused every single piece of this quilt mini....the entire thing is 20" square -- the real, non-mini Glacier Star is 80" so, you. An imagine how tiny and AMAZING those pieces are. 

Irene worked on her Bali Wedding Star.....with it's rainbow colorway. Lovely.

So, funny back story about Retreat and Kevin Bacon.....Mona attended retreat, and is from El Cajon....and we know several of the same people, but had never met before! Small world, right? Then we figured out that Irene's friend from San Diego is friends with my friend Kelly's friend Isabelle, Irene had even been to Kelly's house for a Saturday Sisters Sewing Day! Freaky small world....
