Sample Spree

I survived! To be quite honest, I was a little terrified of getting run over by zealous quilters. Overall, everyone was pretty nice and orderly. There was only one booth I REALLY wanted to go to (nope, not Moda-Lecien!), and I got to it right away. So, here's a pic of me, post-sample spree.
Now that I look at it, its a pretty lame picture. Sorry. I was trying to be witty. Now, what you really want to see: the booty! (NO, not that booty. Get your minds out of the gutter!)
This is a sneak peek. When I unwrap everything, I'll post better pics. I got two fat quarter bundles from Lecien: "Flower Sugar" (to DIE for! Start bugging you LQS now!), and a mixed Lecien bundle, from Moda, the new American Jane, "Happy Camper"...WAY cute! I also picked up a few patterns and a charm pack of Lakehouse's new line.

As for the celebrity sightings...aack! Driving up to the parking garage I saw Lynette Anderson. Inside, I saw Bonnie and Camille, Eleanor Burns, Holly Holderman, Heather Mulder Peterson, Lori Smith and Lizze B Cr8tive! Very surreal!

Tomorrow I'm off to tour the booths, and as long as the booth vendors allow it, I will take more fabulous pictures!

Do you have to pay for the sample spree stuff or is it free?
