Gone With The Wind fabric! Oh, how my mother will love this!
A treasure trove of DVDs from Quilting Arts, some sewable metal for embellishments, a vintage scarf pin, rust dyed thread from Lois Jarvis, a huge pack of scissors I won at Surviving the Runway at Make It University, and a Virgin of Guadalupe fabric square.
Kelli Perkins was using this great fabric paint from Karen Pharr, and I had to go get some to try them out! I also got my hands on batick wax and a tjanting tool so I can try batiking my own fabrics this summer.
A favorite booth of mine is Maeda Imports, who has the greatest Japanese import fabrics. I loved this winter and children cotton furoshiki, as well as these hair clip kanzashi. The plushie owl will be part of next year's Hina Matsuri display.
I would be remiss if I didn't stop by Cherrywood fabrics and stock up on their luscious dyed fabrics, and I noticed I was missing blues in my Cherrywood collection, so I stopped by on a mission. I also found a great booth selling Jaquard's ExtravOrganza, which will be a technique later this year. Wendy Richardson is a fabulous dyer and quilt artist, and she had this piece from Alexander Henry's Home Sewing Is Easy comics strip panels. Lastly, the ladies at MistyFuse had a "goddess" pressing sheet to use witht he bolt of MstyFuse I got from them last year!

I am so jealous! It just sounds like such a blast! I am off to explore your links. I think it is going to be an expensive exploration!
Are you going to Create in Chicago?
I have a comic book show for most of the days of CREATE, but I plan to be there the first day. Bummer, I know... I love your blog BTW, it's wonderful! Thanks for stopping by.
Fun!! You got some great goodies.
I just met Karen Pharr at the Cleveland Sewing Expo last month and bought a set of her paints. Love them -- just gave them a good workout yesterday with gelatin printing.
Thanks Gisela! I can't wait to try them. Love the fabrics you made over on your blog!
