The TNNA Nashville Needlework Market was AWESOME! It far exceeded my expectations! Sold lots . . . met lots of great people . . . wonderful talented designers, fun shop owners and some fans of The Nebby Needle (you're too funny Janis)!!! It was just the affirmation I needed to stoke my creativity!!!
"The
Fun Girls" (Jenny & Barbie) were assistants extraordinaire!!!
"Super Fan" Janis of Noteworthy Needle . . . the icing on the cake of Market!
Check out her "Cross Eyes" :

. . . SO CLEVER!
I had a little bit of time to shop as well: "Numero" and "Nimble Netty" from sweet Jeannette Douglas (her "Common Thread Sampler" is gorgeous! Too intimidating for me . . . I would need a class with her sitting by my side!); "Big Red House", "My Country" and "Spring Hare" from La-D-Da (Lori is a riot); "Spring Sampler" from Nikyscreations (Niky is a sweetheart . . . love listening to her Italian accent); "Count Twice" from Plum Street (fun Paulette); and "Sunflower House" and "Crow & Basket" from Teresa Kogut Creative Whims (a new designer to me . . . does a lot of punchneedle and is just getting into cross stitch design). And if that wasn't enough, I dropped off my new designs to our local Cross Stitch & Crafts shop today and bought two more charts: "Green On Green" from Rosewood Manor and "Vintage Inspiration" from Blackbird Designs (why I didn't pick that one up while I talked to Barb and Alma I don't know).
I only took my camera with me once when I was visiting other rooms and got these few pictures:
Paulette (from Plum Street Samplers) was next door to us.
Jeannette Douglas and her treasure trove of beauties!
Farewell Nashville! Looking forward to St. Charles in August ! ! !
