Arizona neighbors! You will seriously miss out if you don't make your way to downtown Mesa, AZ this weekend for Blissfest 2009, presented by my ever-fabulous friends at Domestic Bliss, Kristin & Dan Alber. Stephanie Nielson and her husband, Christian, will be there. Tara Frey will be doing a book signing with her new book, Blogging for Bliss. Jaimee Rose is coming too. There will be music, dancing, dozens of artists' booths, a stagecoach — I mean, come on, a stagecoach!
I'll be at the Blogging Lounge on Saturday afternoon and the HB crew will be there too, with our own version of a general store: Trash Ties, fabric, felt, patterns, kits, chit chat, perhaps some chocolate to snack on. So, AZ folks, put your cotton-pickin'
boots on and mosey on down to Friday night's 'Grand Fandango' and
Saturday's Blissfest Market. Details on the flyer above or visit the Blissfest blog.
Happy Fall. I don't know about your neck of the woods, but, here, the weather is gorgeous. Finally.
See you there!
(Felt supply all fat & re-stocked by the way — if you've been waiting.)
I can’t make it Friday night, but will Stephanie Nielson be there Saturday as well? And is it only Friday that you’re supposed to dress “western”? That sounds so fun! I wish I had heard about it earlier! I guess it’s better today than hearing about it Sunday! 🙂
Wish, wish, wish I could go. Indiana is not quite a neighbor of AZ.
Oh how I wish I could go. . .
I wish I could go. I wish I could meet Stephanie. I wish I could meet Heather. I live in Michigan though…{sad}
will you have any of your fabulous felt at the event? I’m hoping to swing by for a bit and would love to grab some felt!
All these shows and fun things between your blogs and the clark/nielson blogs makes me want to move to your side of the country! I wish, SO WISH I could come. I hope you do really well, and please share pics from your display when you return!
Do you know I recently traveled over an hour to a quilt shop that I discovered carried your fabric lines…it was SO worth the trip! I even bought your Happy Stacker pattern too!
I’m from Tucson and it’s just a hop, skip and a jump away. But I have a wedding to attend. Total bummer! Have fun :o)
wish i lived in Arizona. Have a fun weekend and when are you going to show us you new fabric line… loved the sneaky peak and want to see more!!
I bit far away from Barcelona, Spain, but I would love to be there. And what’s a fandango? In Spain is an antique popular dance, but it also can be a nasty way of referring to some part of a woman’s body… ahem…
Hi Heather,
Just saw your post about BlissFest…and I see donations benefit JDRF. Thank you, thank you!!! I am the mom of two daughters with Juvenile Diabetes and I thank you with all my heart!!!
We went today and it was great! You did my daughter Abby’s hair in her new Trash Ties and they stayed all day…love them! Thanks a bunch for showing me how…even I have some on now.
I saw that dress you made for quilt market on someone’s blog. PLEASE pattern it for us! It is adorable, and if I start soon it, maybe it will be ready for summer!
Hi Heather,
I live in CA, so will not be able to attend the Blissfest. Although, I am going to purchase the book. Will be great to read during Winter evenings with a cup of Hot Chocolate! Take Care! Franchelle
Heather,
I went to Blissfest and had a really good time! We sooo need more of these times in the Phoenix Area…..I remember years ago when there were too many to go to all of them! I loved your things! I even had my photo taken in front of some of your wonderful fabrics! Plese feel free to stop be and say hello!
Wow that looks like fun ! Wish I lived close enough !
This sounds like so much fun!! Wished I could attend.
Have fun!:)
Your blog is wonderfully sensual and I love it!
I want to leave a footprint to you from the very very south part of Sweden by….
