We are back! Market was in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania this year. It was amazing. My first market as a vendor (pattern designer) Usually I'm buying for my shop. What a change. I have a much greater appreciation for those who create and market their creations. It's intense and a bit daunting! This is our booth. Kati Cupcake Pattern Co. 
This is Melda! My very good friend and quilt shop buddy.

Melda and I got invited to go on a dinner cruise from Moda. It was alot of fun. Thanks Moda!
Our boat was the last one to leave......
This was the inside.
PNC Field taken from the boat. The view of the city was just fantastic.
Melda and I on the boat up on the deck, just chillin.
The city was gorgeous!
This was at the convention center. The water fall follows the path down to the dock. It was so beautiful!
Barbara Jones from Quilt Soup wasn't at market, but her new book and fabric was! It was everywhere and very fun! It's bubble gum basics by Henry Glass
My sister Jen came down from Philly to see me while I was at the show. I miss you Jen. Thanks for coming!
We all know Heather from Anka's Treasures! Her booth was sweet!
Heather and I!
This is Heather and her son Doug. Heather owns the Quilt Barn in Kimberly, Idaho. I haven't been to her shop yet, but I've heard tons of great stuff about it. Doug was such a trooper. I asked him if he was having a good time and he just looked at me. I told him my son Austin who is the same age, has been begging me to go to market. He wrote Austin a message.
This is not fun, don't come
13 year old from Idaho
Doug
Austin Laughed when he read it! I'm not sure it changed his mind!
He still thinks he wants to go, just not as bad.. what ever that means.

She is such an amazing designer! I love her fabric and books!
So the whole trip Melda kept saying. "We're walking I'm not going to waste my virgin cab ride with you". I'm saving it for Jo (her husband). It's kinda funny, melda has lived all over the world literally. Well she waisted it on me otherwise we would have missed the plane. We left the hotel at 2:00 am our time to get to the airport. Sorry Joe!
Enjoying the ride.
Trying to keep my eyes open.
