Hey everyone! I'm back from my trip to the US for Spring Market. I had a wonderful time and here are some photos to prove it. (sorry they are a bit blurry, phone photos!)
First stop was Leavenworth Quilt Co for classes…..what a wonderful shop and a great bunch of ladies…I really loved it here! (I am already thinking I need to go back!)
