Quilt Market

I just got back from Quilt Market the other day and it was such a blast!!  I absolutely loved meeting lots of my sweet online friends, seeing new fabric collections and viewing all the beautiful booths!  It was my first time going and will definitely want to go again!!  The only problem is it went by way to fast!

To not have several posts of quilt market I'll warn you now that there is a lot of photos in this post (hope you don't mind).  I'm dividing them into sections so you can just scroll down and see all the pretties!!  :)

I went with my two Sil's Ninzel and Tasha.   During the day I was mostly off on my own at different booths for appointments to view new fabric collections, and then in the evenings we were able to hang out and have fun in downtown Portland.

organizing

This week I've been organizing the studio as I got a new sewing table at a vintage market for super cheap!  Swoon!!    I've rearranged things and I'm so glad as it is so much more organized, and now I really love being in my work space that much more!!

 My new sewing area!!  All decked out in red & aqua!!  See me new table!!  I adore it!!  :)

The new shipping station!  I love how bright and cheery it is.  Packing up orders is so much more enjoyable in the pretty new space!

I organized my stash finally!!  It was in a bit of chaos so this will be fabulous to find the fabric I'm looking for in upcoming projects!

I got the adorable Window Shopping art print framed and hung in my entry right above where you come into my studio.  I love it!!
 

Now I'm packing a few last orders while singing a joyful song as I'll be heading down to Portland for Quilt Market shortly!!  Can't wait!!  If you want to follow me at quilt market just look me up on Instagram under sewdeerlyloved as I'll be posting pics of Quilt Market pretty often. 

Hugs,
