I just returned from Utah where I delivered the keynote address at this year's Sewing Summit
in Salt Lake City. What a great experience. And what a fun respite from
the whirlwind of work I have this month. I was there for the entire
event which gave me the chance to get to know a lot of the
attendees—such an inspiring group.
And the Salt Lake City food! That was a surprise. It helped that I went out to eat with some local foodies. Take Note: Bruges Waffles, Settebello Pizzeria, Plum Alley, Gracie's Bar, Hatch Family Chocolates & Ruby Snap Cookies.
I'm back in the studio now and I have to tear right into my class project for Thursday's Creative Bug shoot. I haven't forgotten about the Lottie Da fat-quarters giveaway. We will go through those entries and select our random winner this week, then post it here on the blog.
I just wanted to pop in with a quick hello and an update. I'm excited
to tell you more about this great event and the thoughts and stories I
shared at the closing dinner after I get through this next swirl of
sewing.
Thanks to @cailamade and @hotpinkstitches for letting me snag photos from your Instagram feeds.

So great to hear you’re joining the Creativebug ranks! They are so wonderful to work with. Have fun and I can’t wait to see what you do!
So glad I got to meet you Heather. It was a real treat. 🙂 Good luck this week!
It was such a great weekend, wasn’t it? I LOVED your keynote address and meeting you was a highlight for me! I’m so glad you were able to use my photo for this post, too! 🙂
It was so nice to meet you. I was blown away with all of the things you have been able to do. I wanted to ask about the princesses, but never got a chance. I hope that you will share that experience and how some of those experiences came about. You are such a sweet person and it shows. Thank you for such a wonderful ending to a great weekend.
So good to meet you! And thanks for sharing your story.
Thanks, Caila! I would normally ask first. I’m glad you don’t mind. I don’t have any photos from the weekend. xo—Heather
Glad you made it home safe. I hope things go well this week.
