Portland Quilt Market - Teaser!

May 17th, 2008

For the past few days I’ve been immersed in the creative kingdom of International Quilt Market (in Portland). Boutique Cafe was given special access within the show to videotape and interview a plethora of our fabric and designer heroine’s and (heros). Taking along my amazing team of Megan from Brassy Apple and Amelia from Intimate Photography we worked the showroom floor interviewing, capturing and photographing, drool worthy textiles and admirable creative geniuses. We also had the opportunity to meet up with several members of the boutique designer community, it’s been the most spectacular meet and greet!

We’re on our way home tomorrow, and can’t wait to share it all with you! Now the fun begins as we edit video tape and photos to share on Boutique Cafe. Watch for our video coverage of 2008 Portland Quilt Market…coming very soon!!

    I miss you girls already!!! Thanks for letting me room with you and so sorry I snuck back into the room at the wee hours in the morning every night. LOL!!! I felt like a teenager sneaking back into my parents’ house. LOLOLOL

    I had the most amazing time at Market and can’t wait to do it all over again in October. Houston or Bust, right?? :)

    That is hilarious Lorri!! I didn’t notice how coordinated we really were until this moment either. :) We were so busy that it just didn’t register. LOL!!

    I just got home today and can’t wait to start going through the pics and video to share - it’s going to be such a blast.

    Patty you were out past curfew every night and so I’m grounding you! L! Glad you had so much fun. I loved rooming with you, Megan and Amelia - what a total blast to be with you all.

    Houston is definitely in the works girl!
