I am going directly from the Spring Quilt Market to Puyallup for the 2012 Planning Meeting. Hopefully, I'll be able to connect with some speakers and/or vendors...
Last year, I had a chance to visit with Mark Lipinski. We are friends on Facebook -- and I go to his page every week to watch "American Idol" with Mark and 300 of his closest friends...

This was the first time I got to touch somebody's "I-pad". This year, Ann Sagawa will be bringing her NEW I-PAD to the planning meeting. I can hardly wait!! (John gave me a color Book Nook for Christmas -- and it's official name is "you are not an I-Pad")...

It's always fun to bump into Sew Expo vendors. Here's Luveta Nickels at last year's Spring Quilt Market.

AND, it was during that show I got a chance to sit with Becky Keck and the Bernina team about bringing Ricky Tims to the 2011 show...

WHAT will we come up with for 2012?? 2011 was such a great show -- it is going to be a hard fact to follow!!
Bummer you didn't make it to Puyallup before May 15th. You could have joined the crowd as they bid Pacific Fabrics adieu. Their last day was Sunday :-( So sad. Our weather should be fairly nice for you. We had our rain quota for May all in 24hrs this past weekend.
