How's that for a title??? Not good huh? I sound like Fat Albert. Did you watch that tv show? Yes you did! Don't lie!!! HEY, HEY, HEYYYYY!!! In my gravely voice. Ok, let's move on.
I promised you some PKM and some Bee In My Bonnet fabric. So without further adue.
I fell in love with both of these girls fabric lines. I think they were the best two at market. I'm just sayin. That's my opinion. And it should be yours!!!
First up is my peep Miss Pam!!! It's just that I've known her for several years now. Hunka and I first met Miss PKM when she worked at a quilt shop in her area years ago. Before she became FAMOUS I might add. See PKM everything happens for a reason. Yoru probably famous because you know me and Hunka. OK maybe not!! But I can dream can't I? I still remember when we walked into the quilt shop and she was in there. She knew it was up right away.
Her booth had these adorable life size posters. I think Miss Nancy No Blog even begged for one. But Pam said she too would like one. I think you know who will get one first. Sorry No Blog. Keep on dreamin. This was only two of them. Toooo dang cute.
Pam and Holly's booth was just so cute you wanted to move in. I think it is awesome that Holly did this fabric line for Pam. It's to die for. I hear her best friend Elizabeth did alot of work for her getting it ready and making lots of the goodies that were given away. Which were FAB U LOUS!!!!!!!! I even went back and asked for extras so I could give them away to one of you.
There you can see three of the posters. And look at that delicious table full of goodness. Nancy and I wanted to scoop it all up and bring it home. But we were pretty sure there were cameras watching us. You know we looked suspicious. Like stalkers or something.
You know how I have a fetish with RED. Well, this fabric line fit right in with my RED. I ordered.............let's just say ALOT. And yes I got the panel with all the cute kittens
Look at that pinwheel. I hear Miss Pam made these up while in her hotel room. What a company girl!!! And the basket of Strawberries. We did want to heist one of those but we didn't. Maybe Miss PKM can send me a few berries. Ok yes I am shamelessly begging here. And an autograph on my berries would be most appreciated. Just sayin. She is famous now you know? Not that she wasn't before but she now has F.A.B.R.I.C
Look at all of that. It's like a candy store isn't it?
These are her strawberry's that she's going to have a free pattern for I think.
And these are the lovely fabrics. Well some of them. Guess which colors I bought? If you guessed red and blue you win!!! Ok you don't really win, but you win!!!
So we went to the booth on Day one and no PKM. She was out hobknobing with someone I'm sure. So we continued stalking, um searching for her until we found her. And she was so happy to see us I have to say. She didn't make us feel like we were rushing her or bothering her. That was very nice because we know she was busy. You can tell that she really appreciates our business. And that is very important to me.
Why oh why do I always feel like an amazon next to everyone?????????
Did I say that if you leave me a comment here you can be in the drawing for the loot I got from the PKM booth???? Well leave me a comment and you can win!!
Now let's move on the Lori's delicious booth too. Also known as my new favorite fabric company. Riley Blake. Talk about nice people. They could not be any nicer. So down to earth. It's a cute little famiy business and I will be purchasing a lot from them.
So this is one side of their booth. Could you not toss a quilt on the grass and have yourself a little picnic right there??? I'm so hoping I win one of those bikes. Yes they are doing a give away and I entered. PLEASE let me win that bike.
Do you not love that tree? I'm going to grow one of those. Fabric and all.
STOP IT!!!! STOP IT NOW!!!!!!!! This tree was too cute for words.
Here's Lori's part of the booth. I'm in love with that cake quilt. I have all of her patterns on order. I'm waiting for the arrival so I can have a ceremony. lololol I'll invite you when I have it ok? Look at that pillow. Bestillmyheart!!!
Love this. Ordered the pattern.
And this!!! I so want to make this. Isn't it beautiful?
This apron has always been one of my favorite designs that Lori did. My friend Kris did this as a BOM at her shop and I made a few of the blocks. This was one that I did. Mine is a smaller version.
This my mini me apron. I still love it!!! I'm going to frame that one block and put it in my kitchen.
In case you don't know Lori, she is the one second from the left standing next to Sherri. I guess I didn't get a photo of her and I together. Darn it. I talked to her several times but just never did it. I have several of her new fabric line on my website. I love the one with cherries. It's a nice clean white background with real looking cherries all over it.
Here's the fabs that I have in stock of Lori's new line.
Okie Dokie Smokie!!! Sorry, I love saying that. I hope you enjoyed the Pam Kitty Morning and Bee In My Bonnett post. I know I can't wait for all the goodness to arrive at my doorstep. And you know where you'll find it. On my website. YIPPPEEEEE.
Are you signed up for my Daisy Cottage Quilting newsletter? I'm having a give away over on my website/blog. So sign up and check it out.
Yeah there is a picture of us!! I am so glad because I didn't want to think I imagined it. Thank you so much for all the pkt love and support. I am so happy you like the line. And isn't Lori's collection and patterns wonderful .. I am making those dishes myself. Love you xo

I am in love with the Kitty fabric. It reminds me of cards we used to receive when I was a little girl.(A very long time ago) The colors are so gorgeous.
Posted by: Mary W | May 28, 2011 at 08:59 PM
I'm a big fan of both these gals. Can't wait to get my hands on some of their fabric.
Posted by: Rita | May 28, 2011 at 09:39 PM
Oh my too much cuteness in one post, I can't stand it, the booths and fabrics are just so yummo. I can see why you could resist all that fabric. Thanks for a fantastic post.
Posted by: wendy | May 28, 2011 at 09:54 PM
Oh what fun!!!!
Posted by: Kris | May 28, 2011 at 10:23 PM
Did you ask which nursery sells those fabric trees? Do they need any special soil to be planted in or anything. It's just what I need in my garden!
Posted by: QuiltSue | May 29, 2011 at 12:12 AM
Those are some adorable fabrics. I really like the cherry one. Thanks for the eye candy.
Posted by: Angela Prince-Bex | May 29, 2011 at 12:18 AM
Sharon what a brilliant post. I so love seeing all of the photos of what you guys got up to and who you met. Its great to be able to put faces to names. And those fabrics , talk about to die for, ALL OF THEM (sigh). It must be lovely to look at them all when they arrive and just sigh. Gorg.
Posted by: Deb | May 29, 2011 at 12:27 AM
Love love love it all!!! That PKM fabric is just to die for- and I am absolutely positively sure I'd be wanting to move into her booth a market as well....
Posted by: Anne Heidi | May 29, 2011 at 01:02 AM

Love those strawberries, look good enough to eat!! I had a sewing day with my friend Gayle Pan, she said you guys had a hoot !!. Good luck with winning that bike, I would settle for some strawbs.
Posted by: Bronwyn | May 29, 2011 at 05:14 AM
I smile every time I see that tree! My friend actually brought it home and it's in her new quilt store that's opening in a week! I'll be blogging about it next week. I'm loving that red fabric too, in fact it all looks really nice and I'm always happy to learn of a new line I didn't know about. Looks like you had so much fun at market too.
Posted by: Cindy | May 29, 2011 at 05:17 AM
I want a bowl of those strawberriers! They are just to cute.....Have a good weekend!
Posted by: Randee | May 29, 2011 at 05:33 AM
PKM...so sweet and girly...love it (this coming from a house full of guys!)
Posted by: Mary Flynn | May 29, 2011 at 06:11 AM
oh such cuteness......LOVE both of those lines and so wonderful to know where we can find them!!! I need me some of those strawberries too. Thanks for taking us along with you.
Posted by: annie | May 29, 2011 at 06:15 AM
Love it all! Just send it ALL to me and no one will get hurt. LOL
Posted by: Darlene | May 29, 2011 at 06:39 AM
There is nothing better than Sew Cherry, unless it is PKM...hard to pick either one...okay, I will take them both!!!!
Posted by: blop | May 29, 2011 at 08:58 AM
No way can I pick out my favorite from the beautiful fabric lines, but I think I like Sew Cherry a bit more!
Posted by: Elizabeth J. | May 29, 2011 at 11:26 AM
Hey, hey, hey! You look like you had a fun time at Quilt Market. Isn't Lori Holt the bee's knees? Totally swoon-worthy in so many areas!
Posted by: Michele | May 29, 2011 at 03:46 PM
Cute Stuff! I haven't seen PKM fabric before this post but I already have some of Lori's fabric, love it. I love the cute as heck patterns too. I want to make some of those strawberries, so adorable.
Posted by: Carol Lewis | May 29, 2011 at 04:37 PM
I would love to win some of your quilt market loot! Thanks for the giveaway.
Posted by: Carol in E TN | May 29, 2011 at 05:00 PM
When you get the seeds in for that fabric tree, I'd like to order some. Aren't Pam and Lori's fabrics wonderful!!! Have you wiped the bbq sauce off your chin yet?
Posted by: Jeannie | May 29, 2011 at 05:20 PM
Fat Albert. love that show. "you are like school in the summertime.". Oh yeah? How? "no class"! Greatest show ever! PKM fabrics are too cute!
Posted by: Jen | May 29, 2011 at 05:51 PM
What isn't precious on this post? The PKM stuff is to die for! I think I might be feeling me some PKM kitty valances in my HOOKING room!!!!! I love the red version, but of course.....and the blue......oh gosh.......I love it all.
I also love the quilt with the cherry centers and those darling apron blocks. Why didn't I listen to you and learn to sew and quilt 19 years ago?
Did I see little cards too? Precious!
I see kittys in my future.......
regardless.
BTW, the reason you look so tall and like an amazon (your words) (which you are not) is because of the way you wear your "passport holder". You have a vertical holder. You need a short and squatty one - and then you would look more like me. LMAO!
>^:^<

It is lovely loot that you found at Quilt Market. I have followed both Pam and Lori's blogs for a while now. They do have such cute fabrics and are really nice ladies too.
Thanks for the chance to win some of yours and Nancy's finds.
It sounds like Quilt market was a wonderful time. So glad to know that Nancy is feeling much better too.
Regards,
Anna
