The Long Beach Quilt Festival is one of my favorite retail shows. I attended it in 2009 & 2010 and almost wasn't going to make it this year.... but at the last moment flight prices dropped enough for me to book a ticket!! {It also means I get to spend a few days with Elijah!}

Lucky Duck! Enjoy it all, especially Elijah!
Wow! What fun!
Looking forward to seeing you and Natalie and the new samples. Now that the baby is 2mo old and most of the nursery sewing is done I can get back to somethings too. And hugs for Elijah and Aliyah too!
Have a great time... and take lots of pictures!
Wish I could pop by! I'm out of town for a wedding, so I'm missing the entire show weekend!
Fun, Fun, Fun! Can't wait for a recap - hopefully with lots of pictures!!
I'll be there....hope to run into you. Will you be at that booth?
I'm going too. Maybe we can say hello.
Oh good ... I wanted to pick up a couple of your patterns!
So much fun - I can just picture you two with fabric all around and fruity drinks in your hands talking quilting to anyone who cares to join in!
And hurray for fun time with Elijah.
I would visit if I could! Have fun!

My new favorite quote is from "Rolling in the deep" by Adelle. She sings "Trow your soul into every open door, count your blessing to find what you look for"
