As you may know this past weekend I was able to have the most wonderful little getaway to Seattle to check out Plush You in person!! This trip was made possible my all my wonderful friends who actually fundraised my plane ticket and encouraged me to go. Kristen Rask, the owner of Schmancy Toys told me to thank you all for sending me (:
and a HUGE thank you to my hosts in Seattle Danielle and Robert who made my stay most comfortable and enjoyable and I couldn't have imagined a better weekend with more wonderful people. This trip will be in my heart forever as one of the best weekends of my life!
During the opening of Plush You I was able to see so many of my plush hero's work in person and it was such a wonderful experience to meet some of the people behind the plush
Here are my three submission pieces handing out with plush from around the globe!
There was so much to see in the shop it was jam packed full of plush. Each time we walked around the shop we noticed another creatures we hadn't seen before... I tried to take photos of everything but my head was just swirling with excitement!
Check back later this week and I will be posting part two of my trip, adventures around Seattle

This is so friggin exciting, Kami!! I'm so happy for you!
That must've been hard to not go home w/that blue face guy. Did u buy any plush?
I recognize sooo many of those artists. (Isn't that neat?! - that's my dream - to be "recognizable" by my style.) And I see some unfamiliar plush too - I'll have to do some poking around online to find who those crafty people are...
Kami, I'm smiling ear to ear looking at these pictures and imagining you there!! You must have almost peed your pants!! And your dudes look so fantastic with all those other ridiculously awesome creatures!
*wipping drool from corner of mouth*
What an amazing store so full of awesomeness every angel you look. Based on the photos alone it looks like you had an wonderful trip. I am so happy your friends could help make this possible for you.
Glad I found your site as well. Hope your having a wonderful week.
Much Love,
