Spring Quilt Market Round Up- Part 1 :)

We're back from Minneapolis and Spring Quilt Market was amazing-- I met some fantastic and talented makers and we unveiled some really great new collections and SO MANY QUILTS!! I can't wait to share what's happening with Michael Miller this season! But, for now, I'm going to give you a sneak peek into the QM booth...
Here we are after a few days of setup in front of Violet Craft's infamous Jungle Abstractions Lion quilt... 
...and, you know I love to post "before pics", so here's the blank canvas...
 And Rob Appell (of Man Sewing) on our way home from shopping in IKEA. I think we were there for four hours... we were all shopped out and tried to get in the wrong mini van. Ha!
Below are a couple of set-up pics... it's our WIP!
....and a section of our flower walls...
Below are some pictures of our finished vignettes!
