    Wooohooooooooooooooooooo! Yay yay yay. That's awesome and I did have an inkling a few posts back… well done you, that's freakin' awesome! I am sure you'll have lots of friendlies in the audience but I am happy to be there and even man your stall, just pop me into the schedule. Love you, love your work! xxx

  6. Love it! You'll bring so much sparkle they won't know what's hit them! 🙂

    Freaking amazing! Wish you weren't on the other side of the world and I could come by to see your amazing sparkly booth 🙂

  8. *throws fairy dust all over the show* Amazing news. Sooooo many quilt and craft shows could do with a bit of sparkle and pizzazz and who better to spread it around?

  9. oops my ipad disobeyed me and I couldn't continue…new message. Sydney have it sorted!! Just need to get some modern quilt shops (and fabric) with booths and they will be on a roll. I can't wait to see what you come up with…especially the colours!! Love xxxx

  10. WOW! What an honour! You can totally pull together a booth and finish enough quilts in time- and you won't be needing any J.Lo back up dancers for help either, but they would be kinda fun in your booth.

    Ooh, stupendously exciting news! It's such a great idea on their behalf, I'm sure you'll be personally responsible for a huge increase in numbers & will encourage an exciting & more modern-ish demographic. I'll be there for sure & I wasn't planning on visiting before your fabulous news. Well done you!

  12. Amazing! I'll be there for sure. Brand Molli is just going from strength to strength!

  13. Woohoo!!! I have no doubt you'll produce a showcase of sparkling colour in a month. Many congratulations!!!

  14. Anja says:

    Congratulations! I'm sure you'll be awesome.

  24. Whoever thought up this idea deserves a medal!! Very exciting! Surely they can add Melbourne and make it a national tour?

  25. OPQuilt says:

    Judging from the slightly extrovert qualities of your blog (ahem) I think you will have a blast! Of course, you'll be bleating like a lamb at the end of each day (needing the Cone of Silence to recover perhaps) but this sounds like just the forum/thing/booth for you! Have a great time and I'll look forward to reading all about it!

  26. Kristy says:

    I think the heavens knew what they were doing when they sprinkled that glitter all over you all those years ago. I am so happy for you, that's an exciting adventure. Look out world, Molli takes Sydney…then the world!!!!

  59. Gabriele says:

    I found your blog "by accident". And I enjoy it soooo much! Love your works and reading your posts – keep it that way.
    I wish you tons of fun – not only in the fair, but also in preparing it. (I had to organize exhibitions, booths etc for a company a while back and it is fun).
    And… I'll now go to my window here and send some sparkling glitter dust to you – and hope it'll arrive on time, as I live in good Ol'Germany.
    Congratulations – I'm looking forward to reading your posts on your experience.
    Gabriele
