Vintage Faire and Book Signing
**I should be sewing, but I just want to take a minute and show some of the fun things we've been doing! these are the ladies from Vintage Touch in Lebanon OR~Julie Webber and Patty~Calvin and I met them at the Vintage Faire in Sublimity Oregon last weekend.
Lots of fun stuff to look at, I love just browsing through the stalls and getting ideas and reminiscing about how things must have been back then. Spotting things that I have (in storage) and things that my parents and grandparents used~
Then we drove home through the "Side roads" and stopped in Silverton for their Art Fair and somewhere out in the country we found Swan Island Dahlia Farms~I wish you could see this one for real~it was bigger than my head!
Just rows and rows of beautiful Dahlias
On Tuesday evening Natie and I went to Powell's Books in downtown Portland for a book signing~Mother and crazy daughter!
I have been reading Posie Gets Cozy for a few years now and was so excited to meet Alicia Paulson and hear her talk about her books: Stitched in Time and Embroidery Companion

Why don't we live next door to each other. I would have loved to see each of those things. I love the pink radio too...and the dahlias....and I want one of those aprons.
