I didn't bring my camera, but I can tell you that the two big trends in the quilts on display were rhinestones and naked men. I don't think either one will be showing up in my own work anytime soon ;)
I was super happily surprised to see Sew Fresh Fabrics had a booth at the show! Sew Fresh Fabrics is one of my fav online shops, so I was excited to peruse their selection in person! I managed to contain myself, and resisted the urge to jump up and down and squeal 'I love your shop!' to the lovely ladies in the booth, but it took all my self control. Which explains the strawberries and chocolate Mississippi Mud cake I had for dinner :)
These two prints were a great find for my lobster fabric collection. Maybe this summer I will finally put them all in a quilt?
Aren't these little Japanese Kitties the cutest?
But the one purchase I'm most excited about is my little Sashiko kit. The design was pre-marked on the fabric, and will wash out when I'm finished. Perhaps I will make this into a small pillow, with the kitties for the fabric on the back :)

Love those lobsters! Thanks for visiting my Sunday Stash post.
Oh such pretty additions to the stash! The sashiko kit is gorgeous!
Ok you collect lobster fabric? I have never seen any in my stash collecting hunts....please do a SS post with your collection one Sunday. And rhinestones and naked men? For quilt themes? Seriously? I am intrigued!
Your sashiko kit is lovely and I'm looking forward to seeing a lobster quilt. I didn't even know there was lobster fabric out there - let alone naked men and rhinestones!
Sounds like a fun day.
