Book stuff!!!

Market Fun!  Oh My! Market has finished! All the excitement of School house presentations, book signings, and trunks shows, has been muddled together with Hurricane Sandy... Mixed feelings, being stuck here, while my family is back in NYC tonight...I did hear that it is now a super storm, not a hurricane any longer... Here's hoping.
While there is no way I could possibly be back there to be with my family... let me share with you, some of what has been happening down here in Houston.

Book Signings!  C&T publishing gave away a box of my books, and I got to park myself, to sign them all! Here Pam, Jackie and Sarah Fielke and 30 others!  So fun! I got to meet so nice people who said such nice things about me work...and I didn't even pay them!
Go figure!

(If you are here for FESTIVAL, you can buy my book at the Craftsman's Touch, booth 1110. I'll be there 5-7 thursday to sign books!)

Jackie was super helpful with the camera and also handing out the candy! Chocolate!... It's been great having such a good friends around!

We laughed so hard...I had Jackie take pictures at my "School House" presentation for my book, and I teased her, because, well, I had a lot "interesting"  photos, like this one below... So, you can see just why we laughed... hahaha!  Don't worry Jackie... It's me, not you! I really do take goofy pictures when I am talking!

I really didn't  pick my nose during my presentation... ROFL!  It only looks this way!  
So funny.

Here's another great one, with my hand again strategically placed!  hahaha! I laughed so hard!
I can laugh at myself!  It's pretty funny, right?

A bunch of them were good! See, Jackie! This one is nice!

Thanks Jackie, you are fabulous! ;-)  hehe!  And I am so happy you are home safe and sound tonight... I am still here for FESTIVAL, with book signings this week, with a plane ticket home, friday (Hoping I can still get home then) will post more tomorrow...

More fun stuff to share later! (demo's, trunk shows, QUILTS! and...MORE news!) STAY TUNED!

Don't forget my Book is available for Autographed pre-orders at my website...
Books will be mailing mid November.

Stay Safe, East Coast!

    Very exciting to see you and your quilts at Market! Wish I was there at the book signing. Thinking good thoughts for the safety of your family in NYC. Some of the pictures are hard to believe. Have a safe trip home.

    School house Rock! Yeah for you Victoria your quilts never looked so good and you look fabulous too. I think many of us have no idea how hard it is to get a book out there and all the work that goes into it besides just making the quilts and writing the book!
    It's a mess back here in NY but we'll all recover. No mass transit since Sunday night at 7PM....looks like that could go on for sometime too.
    Hopefully by Friday you can get back into NYC.

    Congratulations on your first Schoolhouse presentation and you know I wish you continued success.

    Happy Sewing

    Big hugs. I know it was tough being away from home with all this storm madness going on.

    BTW, I **LOVE** the chartreuse pants. Looks like you had a great schoolhouse session.

    The nose picking pic cracked me up! It always seems my pics come out crazy like that, too!

    I enjoyed seeing the photos on Jackie's blog, really nice shots of your presentation. I hope everything is ok in the city and on the island. We kept our power, had one tree fall and of course it lands on my fence, lol.

    I am a frequent reader, and participate in my own little way. Just hope that your family is safe and well as we all ride out the aftermath of Sandy.
