I love visiting with Kathy Cardiff, the designer of The Cottage at Cardiff Farms. Her cotton and wool patterns just speak to me. (Can't tell you what they are sayin....Hehe). She brought Jayne with her to help out. Jayne is a fairly new blogger, so check it out.
That's Kathy on the left and Jayne on the right.
Kathy has a new book out called "The Cottage at Cardiff Farms Quilts" and some of these quilts are in it.
Again....more cottons n wool!
This next wonderful lady is JoAnn Mullaly of Wool Crazy fame. She has a really fabulous primitive style.
She bought a lot of her props when she got to Kansas City and was selling them when market was over. Sure wish I lived closer or had a truck to get them home.
All the above projects are in her new book which is............... the giveaway!
Just leave a comment and tell me what booths and/or designers inspired you most! I'll pick the winner on Sunday or Monday.
So, that's it for another wonderful quilt market.
See you soon with pictures from the home front.
Hugs, Anne

Hi Anne,
The visit of the Spring quilt market is already finished! It's a pity because these things there, personally, I would want only they never stop : it is such a happiness for eyes! Thanks a lot for all your posts, pictures... etc !
Thanks a lot also to JoAnn for her gift and it's so hard for me to really answer to your question, because so many designers dazzle us so much (the list is so long)!
However, I must be honest and write you that I have again and again a big very favorite "coup de coeur" for Stacy West from Buttermilk Basin.
Have a nice week-end, hugs
Anne, what a fabulous tour of Market...I feel like I was right there...thank you soooooo much!
Inspired by all the pictures from the different booths. I was really enjoyed the snapshots of Renee Nanneman's booth. I kept wanting to "double-click" and make the photos bigger on each post.JoAnn's booth had to be decorated beautifully... Love the wool and cotton together....
Thank you so much for taking us to quilt market with you! It is so kind of you to offer this lovely giveaway. My two favorites are Buttermilk Basin and JAMs Wool Crazy. Be still my heart! Stacy just updated her website with the new patterns and I have been drooling nonstop!
Blessings, Patti
I am always inspired an in awe of market. Give me anything yummy by Primitive Gatherings.
Your picture tour of the Market was by far the best of the ones I have seen! Im in love with wool! Thank you, Laura J.B.
Thanks for the great pics from some of the booths at quilt market.....all those beautiful quilts soothe the soul....It is hard to choose a favorite but I must say I love JAM wool crazy and Primitive Gatherings as I love anything wool....but Sweetwater designs are so fresh and clean and I also enjoy the style of Cottage at Cardiff Farms....so many quilts so little time....Thanks again for the pics and a great giveaway!
Thank you for sharing Quilt Market photos. It was wonderful. I love all of them so this is a difficult choice. I would have to say Cottage at Cardiff Farms calls me to the lovely style. Thanks for the chance to win.
I really liked the Buttermilk Basin booth. I have really gotten into wool lately and they had some really cute patterns. I really enjoyed your pictures of Quilt Market. Since I can't go it was almost like being there. Thanks
First I want to thank you for taking all of us to quilt market. Lots of us are simply quilters and don't get the opportunity to attend, so Iwant to thank you for the chance to attend. Every day I would think oh I like that shop/pattern/fabric best :) so in all honesty I can't decide which one I like best...so I choose you!
You have enspired me Anne, Quilt Market this Spring was so full of Cotton n' Wool! Each day was my favorite, JAM is one of my favorites, her embroideries are so beautiful and detailed.
Thank you for taking your time to share. :)
JoAnn Mullaly has always been a huge inspiration for me. Please enter me in your drawing for her new book. (big smile)
Thank you so much for all the market pictures. It was almost as good as being there and it saved me a ton of money. LOL
Thank you so much for sharing all of your pictures from market! I hate to see them come to the end. I just went back and scrolled through all of them again, and choosing my favorite? Impossible! I loved so many booths, but especially loved the designers who combine cotton 'n wool! :-)
All the pictures were great! Thanks for taking them for those of us that didn't go to market. I loved all the booths - but, really liked Kansas Troubles and the Primitive Quilt Magazines booths!
I enjoyed EVERYTHING...but I especially loved Kansas Troubles..the basket quilt on the wall had me drooling, Blackbird Designs...that Bird quilt is SEW tweet!!, Fig Tree..loved the 2 colour way Star Quilt, Gail Pan... EVERYTHING..especially the Christmas Quilt!!, Lynette Anderson's Santa and Gingerbread quilt and her PILLOWS!! Loved them!!, Jan Patek's Pine Ridge quilt is stunning! Weeks Wool..the threads...the wool and her PATTERNS..oh my..and her PILLOWS and that sweet WINTER RUNNER left me breathless and Geoff's Mom's patterns...WOW...Love 'In the Meadow'!! And Kathy Carndiff Poinsettia Pillow and Joann's new book...Yup...that pretty much sums it up!! Enjoyed EVERYTHING!! Thanks so much for taking the time to show these booths!! My Wish List got a heck of a lot longer!! :o) Thanks for the chance to win Joann's new book...it looks like a winner!

I just love everything designed by Geoff's Mom - I feel like a blog "stalker" since I'm always checking in to see what new wonderful patterns they have designed. Too many patterns and not enough time....sigh.
I loved the Aussie designers!!! I've already ordered the new book Elegant Quilts, Country Charm and it should be arriving today or tomorrow. I could get in real trouble at market.
Anne, thank you for the chance to win a book I have been covering. I love Jams booth the best.
I would say all of them, each booth and designer has their own styles and love all of them. But I do find myself drawn to your booth and Bari J's style, love your new projects, would be so fun to do.
Debbie
Your photos were the best I've seen on all the blogs. All of the wool/primtive booths are my favorites.
Oh, goodness! I can't pick just one! I absolutely LOVED Buttermilk Basin, and ended up searching out and buying kits for several of her new BOM's. Absolutely wonderfully primitive wooly fun! I also love Sew Unique Creations/Tara Lynn Darr, and Primitive Gatherings!
Hi Anne written by an Anne which always makes me smile when I do this. The wool flower appliqué on quilts always makes me smile as I love to garden. The wool gives a cozy feel on cold Midwestern winter evenings as you snuggle under a quilt with memories of your summer flowers. I really like the mixing of wools and cottons with the primitive flare
Anne thanks so much for all the great pictures from market. I want it all. One booth that absolutely stands out is Renee Nannemans. Thanks also for the give away

Loved your tour of Market - the pix are terrific! Almost felt like being there. While I like them all, I guess my two favorites are Buttermilk Basin and JAMs Wool Crazy! I'm also a huge fan of Primitive Gatherings and love the Primitive Quilts magazine! Oh, let me just be "real" - I love them all!!

Thanks so much for all the nice comments on my booth!.....and on my designs. You are the best......Jo Ann
Thanks for the virtual tour! I'm always inspired by JoAnn's designs (one of each please) but I like Sweetwater too. They are trying to do something different and fresh, traditional and modern at the same time. I like that.
Loved all the pix....but I am always taken in by Primitive Gatherings. Thanks so much for sharing. soardkg@fuse.net
Thanks for a fabulous Market review! I have a real weakness for Primitive Gatherings:) Thanks for the chance to win this super book!
Thanks for the chance to win this great book!
Thanks for posting so much inspiration from market, I especially enjoyed seeing the Primitive Gatherings booth!
Oh goodness!!!! BOTH of these designers are FABULOUS!!! And you already know that I enjoy Edyta Sitar's stuff too! I'd love a chance at winning Folk Branches! I spent the day yesterday organizing my sewing room and supplies... so I just KNOW i have the room available for this book! lol! :-) HAve a GREAT weekend... and thanks again so much for taking the time to post pictures of market! :-)
Thank you so much for your wonderful tour of quilt market. I felt like I was there and have hopped to all these gals sights to see what else they are up to. Truly loved Wool Crazy and Primitive Gatherings.
Thanks again.
Debbie
Oh my, was that ever fun seeing all those wonderful stitched items in those booths!
I would have to say that JAM, Buttermilk Basin and Primitive Gatherings are my top 3 favorites!!
Thanks so much!
Tanya
I could look at these photos over and over again...oh yeah...I have! and I never get tired of them, it just makes me want to buy more! lol
All the booths were so inspiring! I love Primitive Gatherings so I think that might be my top pick.
I love Jan's stuff!!! Her designs are certainly one of my favorites. Thanks for sharing!!!! ~Twyla~
I've really enjoyed all your pictures--so much inspiration, I like all of Buttermilk Basin's new patterns and am especially glad I will be able to get sheep and monthly blankets since I missed those the first time around. JAM is always fun!
those are fabulous pictures, they make me want them all, but if I had to choose I'd say, MS. Joann herself with Wool Crazy. The quilt with the oak leaves, I love that touch of gold as the branch comes out, it like the sun peeking through a tree and high lighting the leaves & acorns. Just love the contrast of that patch of color. Never enough fall designs to suit me!
Thank you for sharing your photos. I love Kathy Cardiff's work - her book is on my "must have" list. I think Primitive Gatherings is my absolute favorite. I forget which blog initially introduced me to them, but I'm forever obliged!
Love them all, that's what hard, but anything with wool is always a favorite. Primitive Gatherings and JAMs Wool Crazy are wonderful!
My favorite is Buttermilk Basin!
This book looks so neat!
Thank you for sharing the photos+the giveaway!
