The International Quilt Market show for Spring is just a few weeks away. It all kicks off on May 15th and runs through the 18th at the
For me, planning for Market means anticipation, crazy hours the next few weeks and the opportunity to see lots of my quilting friends.
For those not familiar with International Quilt Market, it is a trade show focused on “the art and the business of quilting.” For me, it is just fun. Unfortunately, Quilt Market is not open to the general public but is for vendors and buyers of quilting supplies, quilting machines, quilt patterns, and fabric, fabric, fabric! – you get the picture.
In addition to covering all of the festivities (check out photos from 2007 Spring Market in Salt Lake City) and reporting it back to you on Quiltersbuzz, I will also be there showing and selling the latest pattern designs from my quilt pattern studio, Threaded Pear. And I will also keep an eye out for the latest notions, tools, gadgets and fabrics. The best part is chatting with the top designers of fabrics and patterns.
So my flight is booked. I am actually traveling from Kansas City for the Machine Quilter’s Showcase (selling my long arm quilting machine supplies and Gammill quilting machines) and then to Portland for Quilt Market in
