I was hoping that some of our talented bloggers/makers would choose to work with Seedling for the Great Pattern Hack! Kristin, of Skirt as Top, is one of them!!
 Adorable, right?!?
Kristin hacked the Antalya Dress pattern by Willow & Co.
She added pockets (because, they're the best :), lowered the neckline and made the back zipper exposed.

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!

The Quilt is Birdcage on a Chain by Anna Maria Horner
(the dog is a Bichon Frise named Beau:)

by Emily Herrick
Emily won the award for most creative booth... woo hoo, Emily!!

Don't you just love the wall quilt?!? It's King's Cross by Tara Faughnan 
and a detail shot...


and, just a little peek of Color Me by Hayley Crouse...
Dress patterns above are the Verona Dress and the Geranium Dress
The coloring book is by 2 Little Hooligans

Ok, that's all for this week... stay tuned for more of Spring Quilt Market Round up with MMF!

Have a wonderful holiday weekend!
