I know I'm really late on getting these listed for the Holiday's,
but I loved the fabric so much that I couldn't just let it sit!
Therefore, I am offering these as One Of A Kinds and they are
ready to ship!

Here is another picture I took of all the Kiddo's.
It was nearly impossible to get my littlest one to
look at the camera and smile, but on the very last
shot she decided to do it!

TWILIGHT SERIES...

Have you read these books?

Twcollage_2
I just finished them and I am almost speechless!
I loved these books to the point that I'm not sure
what to do with myself now that I'm done. LOL!
They took me out of this world and into another one. It was
so much FUN while it lasted:)

I can't wait for the next one. If you are looking for a little release from your everyday life and busy schedules, I highly recommend these!

They are very clean and a good quick read. (Mostly because you can't put them down.) Click HERE to find out more about them.

Quilt Market

Most of you know that a week ago I went to Quilt Market in Texas.
IT WAS SO FUN!!!I took my (aunt) and good friend Lila with
me to see if we could get someone to pick her up to design fabric.
Needless to say, it went very well:) You will most
likely be seeing her fabric in the spring. I won't share too much
about it other than WOW! It's amazing!!! I can't wait to get my hands on some.
I will definitely keep you posted on what's happening there. 

Also, we were totally getting attacked with our BAGS that Lila made! Everyone was loving them:) Maybe something will come of that too....hmmmm, we'll have to see!

As for me, I was able to meet some of
the most talented and amazing fabric designers out there. Like Amy Butler , Joel Dewberry, Heather Bailey, and Tina Givens.  Also, I met up and had dinner with the Oh so Talented Sandi of Portabellopixie! She debuted her new fabric line with Michael Miller and all I can say about it is - BEAUTIFUL-.  I bought a ton of it for my Pink Fig
fabric store so keep an eye out of my blog for when it will be listed. Congratulations Sandi! Cimg5340











Now for a cool story....The first day of market is pretty busy with everyone trying to meet with the fabric companies to place their orders. Lila and I walked in to the show room and straight over to Free Spirit to check things out. Who do we see first but JOEL and HEATHER! OH MY GOSH!!! I was kind of freaking out. But why should I, there just people right? NO - They are freaking amazing and not to mention TALL. Both of them were so tall! So, I get up my nerves and walk right up to Joel and say, "Hi, I'm Chelsea and I was one of the designers involved in the indelible launch on ebay." He had this huge picture of one of Eva's designs in his booth so I told him, I was friends with Eva and I pulled out some of my pictures from the launch. He was so nice and excited! We chit chatted about the launch and my fabric store that pretty much only has his fabric in it and then I introduced Lila to him. He was immediately interested in her portfolio and asked to see it. By this time Heather had come over and she wanted to see it too. So.....What the HECK! Within in the first 10 minutes of being at market we are sitting down with Joel and Heather, while they look over her designs and give her advice. I was dying!!! Lila was totally breaking out in a sweat. They were so nice an so supportive. From then on out things went GREAT! What a blast.

I was able to talk and brainstorm with Lila over the next 3 days about her future and mine. I won't tell you what I'm planning yet, but my mind has been swimming ever since. I plan to have my own booth at the next market in the spring. I'll give one little clue...it has do with fabric and it's centered around Vintage*Chic.

So now my personal opinion about each designer I met:
Joel Dewberry is so cool. He is seriously the nicest person! He is really tall and very handsome.  What a great guy:)  Hey Eva! I took a picture of his booth for you!

Heather Bailey: I don't have a picture with just me and her, but let me say she is STUNNING! She is so tall too! And what a nice person. She was so sweet to sit and talk with me and Lila. Thanks Heather:) Why do I notice how tall everyone is? Probably because I'm short! 5'3".....I also wish I was a little taller.

Amy Butler:  once again, TALL, Beautiful, So down to earth. I just loved her. When I asked her if I could take a picture of her she didn't hesitate to say yes and then asked if Lila and I wanted to be in it with her. I bought her new book that is full of cool info and tons of gorgeous pictures and she signed it!

Her Booth was EYE CANDY!

I also met Tina Givens who I totally LOVE! She was so much fun. Lila and sat around and talked to her for about 30 minutes. She gave me some of her stationary and told us funny stories about her kids! Her new fabric line is gorgeous. I will definitely be ordering some!

I also met this most adorable girl who sells Japanese Imported fabric wholesale!!! I have some ordered for my fabric store and we're also going to collaborate on some things for the next market.

All in all, I would say Market was a huge success for both me and Lila. We had so much fun just hanging out, talking, eating good food, and getting a little break from our normal lives:) I hope you enjoyed this post!

The hubby had to dress up for work so I made him into a vampire. My little brother decided to be a cheerleader, which worked out perfectly for this next picture....Buffy the Vampire Slayer:

And I just LOVE this picture of my little pink poodle:

I hope you all had a great Halloween! Now it's time to get ready for the Holidays! Sigh....

I thought I would share with you what I did for my B-day. DH had a conference in Las Vegas for work and he was allowed to take me along for FREE! We even got to go to The Blue Man Group for FREE! It was so amazing! One of my most favorite Birthday's ever:)  Here are a few pictures. I especially love the one of him trying to blend in as one of the Blue men. Fun! Fun! I highly recommend going to see this show if you ever get the chance.
