Market!

Sandy and Sue are off at market having the time of their lives!!


Aren't we all a little bit jealous? Yes, you can admit it...don't you wish you could have tucked yourself into their suitcases!?! ...well, maybe we can't bend that way anymore...but it would have been fun to go with them!

So some of you have asked what market is...

Market is a quilter's heaven! Close your eyes and picture what a quilter's heaven would look like...you would see beautiful fabrics, nifty notions, creative patterns, and just miles upon miles of booths filled with quilt paraphernalia! ...and that is just what market is!! Everything good in the quilt world comes together for an amazing quilting adventure...oh yeah, and LOTS of shopping!


Since we can't all go to market...cause you have to be a store owner or in the industry to attend...the wonderful people of Quilts, Inc also plan a HUGE quilt festival! The festival begins just as market is ending - so this is something to add to your bucket list!...and they do more than just one quilt festival per year so check your calendar, gather a few friends, and book a plane ticket or load up the RV!


You can join the International Quilt Fest on Facebook and check out their website to learn more about market and the festival in general!

As Sandy and Sue mentioned earlier they will be posting all kinds of fun updates over the weekend - when they get back we will do one big blog post with pictures and if we can, some sneak peaks!!

...and while they are away we will have some fun here at the shop for Halloween so also be ready for some quiltin' fun...and next week we start sharing lots of great Christmas gift ideas!

Happy Quilting,
QBTB
