Portland #3

Thought we would take a break and show you all the sights we have seen! On Thursday evening we attended Sample Spree, this is where many fabric vendors sell packages of pre-cut fabric so that samples can be done before the line is actually released. It is crazy!!! It is like Black Friday for quilters! The first picture is where we were in line and the second picture is of the line-up after us continuing at the bottom of the steps.




 We took a class from Eleanor Burns, so lively!!


 We decided to pose as the super-hero Quilt Girl



 The Technicolor booth, Barb desperately wanted to bring these movie seats home!!


 The new Zen Chic line Barcelona


 Fig Tree, beautiful!



 Barb and Camille Roskelley of Thimble Blossoms


 The Ankas Treasures booth



 The Cluck Cluck Sew booth


 Selvage edge dress, amazing!!


 Look who we found!!! Tim Holtz! He now has an amazing fabric line!


 The flowers here are gorgeous!

Portland post #2

After we checked in, first stop was target!!! We couldn't wait until the Saskatoon location opened, we had to get our fix now.






Our first full day here was our bus tour. Our walk to meet the bus was beautiful tree covered streets, so green!!!





First stop was The Pine Needle, beautiful shop!!

Next up was Hollyhill, gorgeous shop with beautiful display.  Unfortunately we weren't allowed to post inside pictures.





After lunch was another shop but we were too involved with shopping and forgot to take pictures!!  Our last stop was Monticello Antique Marketplace, amazing!! If only we had a vehicle to bring it all back!
