A plywood portrait, eight feet tall, from the parking lot at The Icehouse. Seriously funky. How does this relate to me? It doesn't really. Except, we're building our own funky wall for our quilt market booth today. If the concept...<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/HELLOmynameisHeather/~4/4hSFdyqDeBM" height="1" width="1"/>

It's Quilt Market season at the studio. We're in a bi-annual bustle to prep for the show. Today, I met with another local stitcher who will be helping out with samples. I'm skirting around that misleading 'sewer' word. I think...<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/HELLOmynameisHeather/~4/gNDCPCb2syY" height="1" width="1"/>

Are you ready for another free pattern? Baby Bibs! I've been making bibs for my kids since my first child was born 16 years ago (seriously?). Now his tee-shirts are bibs. And his jeans are napkins. This time around, with...<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/HELLOmynameisHeather/~4/5z9wE1-ktas" height="1" width="1"/>

I am guest-hosting an episode of Sew It All on PBS this spring. Every PBS affiliate has a different schedule, so I can't give you an exact date. BUT, the episode should be airing very, very soon.

Our new bookkeeper brought some fresh eggs for us today. They are so stinkin' pretty. Why is that? What makes a simple egg so appealing? I had to snap some pictures.

It's time to hand out some show tickets and a C.D. Angela — you've got it — two tickets for Thursday night's show are all yours. Thank you for your enthusiasm.

As we wished—yay!—Wendy is game to offer two tickets to her show in New York City next week at The Metropolitan Room, featuring songs by composers as diverse as Cole Porter, Joni Mitchell, and Wendy’s collaborator, Michele Brourman.

The Rose Bowl Flea Market makes me gitty. Wendy and I were like two magpies, combing the aisles for sparkly treasure. She has a great, vintage-20s, flapper-deco aesthetic.

We just returned from a week in Los Angeles. My super-talented sister-in-law, Wendy Lane Bailey, had flown out to L.A. to perform at the Gardenia.

The building that last week's Revive conference was held at is so cool.
