{Settles in with a Rum and Coke}

So, how was your week? I hope it was amazing and full of all the things in life worth getting out of bed for.  Around here we are getting ready for Spring Quilt Market.

For those not in the know, Quilt Market is a 2x a year industry gathering that is like a quilt shop on serious steroids. Classes to see, new products to learn about and of course lots of old friends to see and new ones to meet. { will I see you there?…drop me a note in the comments!}

It is part highschool reunion and part quilting industry boot-camp where fashion is everything for some but generally stops at the knees since there is miles of walking each day and sensible shoes are just about required.

But sensible shoes don’t mean that you can’t rock it otherwise. This time I am going with  lots of BadAss  Skully wear to make the most of the long days and not long enough nights. Too much food and  equal amounts of drink to go with it.

To round out my wardrobe this time around I made a Mother Of Dragons skirt inspired of course by Game of Thrones.  The embroidery is from the nifty folks at Urban Threads and here is a little wrap up video I did about the pitfalls and  solutions to working with knits and machine embroidery. – Leave me a note if  you have a pressing question.

If you would like to follow along on my Quilt Market Adventure please feel free to follow me over on Instagram for my Instagram-A-Palooza from May 13th through the 18 where I will be documenting my adventures as Flaun, Les and myself take off and do Market with BadAss style.

Past that we have one last day in our Market to Market sale at SPOOL – The shop of the BadAss Quilters Society. The code is  MARKET2015 for those looking to score 25% of more off amazing fabric ( yes the 25% is on top of sale prices!)

 

In other news the InLinkz is open for the BadAss Black and White Skully Challenge and new quilts are being uploaded each day. Pop on over there and see the amazing work roll in each day.  Voting will begin in June.  The winner will get 1 yard of new Skully print per month for 6 months!

 

 

Gosh, I am sure there is more but I feel my pillow calling me, and I am happy to answer!

Sweet dreams~
