Electricity is in the air

We are home from Market now. Yesterday as a matter of fact. I am exhausted as it was alot of fun and so electric with that many designers in one spot and all that inspiration. When last I left you we had just gotten there and started putting the booth up. it took a good day to get things ready and part of the next doing last minute arranging. Anne - Bunny, Anne Bryson, Nancy Ritter and myself worked hard but also took time to chat with old friends and some new ones. What a great experience.

As soon was we got everything ready then we could go and see what others were doing for their booths. I equate this as many many miniature theater productions. Quite a few booths were gorgeous and took you to another place or time. Moda Schoolhouse was all day long but Anne didn't have to do her part until 5pm. After that it was Sample Spree. That is where vendors sell some of their items. Fabric companies, such as Moda offered FQ packs and some kits for purchase so that shop owners could get a head start on samples for their customers. Fabric lines from this market will ship from September to November. What a night that was. There were so many shop owners there. The next morning Market officially started.

The three days went fast and I have alot of memories. I met so many people, Susan from Benartex,
Carol from Clothworks Quilt Shop in Canada, and Alma and Barb from Blackbird Designs, Mary and Barb from Me & My Sister Designs, the list goes on and on. I hope to go to fall market in Houston. I will leave you now with some pictures from Market.
