A Whole Lot of Everything

[@jeanmansfield1138]

I love the Ocean Moda Mix Anna. Some of my favourite colours. I'm pleased that you made the effort and thank you for sharing some of the beautiful quilts and goodies that the suppliers had on offer. Guilty as charged when walking into a Show and shopping at the first supplier - and more than once - despite not meaning to do much shopping as "I don't need anything I'm just looking now I'm here and there's no space left in my stash/Sewing Room" !!!😂 Enjoy the Retreat.

[@quiltroadies1695]

We do have all the conversations in our quilts brains

[@sandyevenson-hagen370]

The Ocean mix is beautiful, it’s going to be a great quilt! Thanks for sharing your wool prep, I like to fuse my pieces down as well. I don’t like to pin or baste the pieces, fusing is the way to go! Have a great retreat!

[@annawillie651]

How much is the book, I like to purchase one please it’s beautiful.

[@elizabetharpino5035]

That's beautiful Anna. I know you will make an exceptional quilt . I wish I was the recipient😃

[@nicolefattu1851]

I LOVE Edmar! I discovered them at a quilt show in Phoenix and got some of their Christmas kits.

[@quiltroadies1695]

Amazingly beautiful 😍

[@carmenmontmarquet706]

Wonderful to see you again Anna! I follow the same Wool Applique group as you do and yes I downloaded the same Peace Hope and Joy pattern as you did! Love it! Looks like it was a fun quilt show! Have fun at your retreat! Thanks for sharing!

[@quiltroadies1695]

I can’t wait to start that one🙏

[@trudiepatterson2503]

I don't like doing things twice. I think that comes from making costumes, bridesmaids, and uniform dresses for years.

[@carenstephens4276]

Hi Anna, you are so right about having pre coordinated fabrics as fast food vs scrap fabric planning as gourmet! In 1993 my dad died suddenly and it took a few days to get home. I prepped signature blocks for my family to sign, for center of some blocks to make for my mom. It took a long time to decide what block pattern for sibling, spouse and their children and then pick fabrics that looked good together but different in most blocks. When I completed the quilt three moves and three new babies, my mom finally got her quilt.❤🎉

[@kimezman8697]

Anna, great video. Thanks for sharing. You always motivate me.

[@quiltroadies1695]

Such a treasure❤️

So nice to have a good chat! I love the seascape quilt for your ocean room

[@norcalquilter9214]

Hello Anna. So good to see you this morning. I so loved your photos from the Quilt show. So much to dream and drool over. But am among the many that have found too many un-done things in my sewing room. I always enjoy our visits. Take care and enjoy your time at the retreats.

[@quiltroadies1695]

Thank you so much! My dreams are larger than my capacity😂

[@karena.2416]

Thanks for the visit. I’ve been missing you. So jealous you got to go to a quilt show and a retreat!😮😊😊❤

I’ve been doing Brazilian embroidery for years. Made the kit you bought to make for a ring bearer pillow for my daughter’s wedding in 2007. Glad to see Edmar had a presence at a show.

[@quiltroadies1695]

It would be a perfect ring bearer pillow😍

This self would only like to embroider those once two. Holy cow..I think I have some Transfer ese some place in my sewing room. I think I need to find that 😂. Each time you mention Cream and Sugar, I find myself wanting to snag that off of my wishlist. I’ve had that on my list forever. So funny that you too love that one. I buy SF101 for wool appliqué by the bolt 😂

[@quiltroadies1695]

Now may be the time to grab it and join the party 😁

I went to a Quilt, Craft and Sewing Expo at the Expo Center in Portland years ago. I was so disappointed in it, I never went back. After seeing your video and seeing how much it has changed, I may have to start going again.

[@maureenm6458]

Thanks for the video. Enjoyed watching. Reminded me of Vermont quilt festival. Which has been cancelled forever

[@cherylmarch9293]

What a fun video! I just love the ocean moda mix fabrics and that’s a perfect pattern for those fabrics too. Thank you for sharing the quilt show with us as well. And Anna, I don’t think I could go to a show an buy nothing, in fact I know a couldn’t. I’m glad you treated your self to something fun! It’s a cute quilt, love the whale! You take care!

[@quiltroadies1695]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@debbiedomagal6839]

Thanks Anna!! Would love to see how you stitch a wool piece. New to wool I am always needing more guidance. You are such a great teacher. Beautiful quilts. Thank you for sharing.

[@quiltroadies1695]

You are so welcome! And I’ll put that in a future video😊

Thank you for the quilt sho video. While you were there, John( The Quiltfather) and I went to the New England Quilt Expo in Manchester, NH. Our experience here was the same as your video: great quilts, wonderful venders and happy people.

[@quiltroadies1695]

Loved your visit and thanks for the quilt show pictures. I just attended our local Lancaster/Lebanon quilt show here in PA. I went by myself (I don’t have any local quilty friends since moving here 3 years ago) and needed 2 fabrics - and that’s all I bought!!! I enjoyed the quilts, the vendors, and was a lecture helper and classroom helper, which was a fun experience. Hugs!

[@quiltroadies1695]

Wonderful! I hope you find a stitchy group…any shops in the area with clubs?

[@suegraham4323]

Hi Anna, I listened to “The Little Liar” on audible, what a touching story. What some people have to go through in this world, makes me forever thankful for my life. I would like to recommend “Good Hope Road” by Lisa Wingate. I love to listen to books while I quilt. You did an amazing job cutting out those silhouettes, looked like they were done by machine. I learned how to prepare wool appliqué from you, works every time. Take care

[@quiltroadies1695]

So true! Thank you for the recommendation 🙏

[@scottydog6539]

You can add that to your YAZZI bags.

[@patsyowens7365]

It's OK Anna, me and my sister love carriage house quilts. Always have to buy something. Love, love that store❤

You excited me about the quilt expo. We are going to one here in Utah in the middle of May; can't wait. Your work is so gorgeous; you can tell how much you enjoy doing it. Have a wonderful week.

Fun to visit with you Anna on your channel. I too love the Peace Hope and Joy pattern and it’s on my list to download. Really love your review too on the felt tote bag. I’m going to have to order myself one! Functional and affordable plus it’s felt so would be fun to bling it out! Have a great week!

[@Chris_Yoo__AsTheYooFlies]

LOL, I buying something at the first booth sounds like something I would do. My guild as a booth at the upcoming Original Sewing and Quilt Expo in Cleveland next week for 3 days. I keep telling myself DON"T buy anything as I'm saving my fun money for the PNWSS so let's see how I manage, but girl....3 days!!! I may be doomed LOL. Just adore your fabric choices for your block of the month!!! Oh, and I'm also so tempted to download that Peach, Hope & Joy pattern, but instead I added it to the wish list. Ugh. Thanks for the Expo tour. So much eye candy!! Hugs from NE Ohio.

Thanks for the visit Anna. My mother had ALS and has since passed but while she was still able to write she started writing stories down. Unfortunately she was unable to finish what she wanted to write. She began with a story of when my grandmother and her sisters came to America from Italy. This journal book is filled with wonderful memories and I find myself picking it up and reading it over and over. My only regret is Mom was unable to finish all the stories she wanted to write. It will always be a treasure to me though. ❤️

But "organization" itself doesn't arrive till we make a mess sorting keeps from pitches...........With regards to the quilt show.........well, Anna...........I was about to chide you about buying at the first vendor in the door and not having any connection to your resolve to not buy anything.............BUT, after viewing the whole video I have changed my mind. I have to say KUDOS to you. Because there were a LOT of great vendors at this show. You did well to come away with just a couple of things. I would've needed a UHaul to take out what I'd want to buy there. EdMar looks lovely!!!!!!! Thanks so much for taking us along. Blessings to you and G.
