Quilt Market Recap

November1

OK, so it’s been two weeks since Market, but better late than never. I have been so busy catching up with the initial requests from Market that I am just now able to take a breath.

Quilters Flag

Quilter's Flag

So, what happened at Market you ask……Well, I showed my second collection of patterns for AccuQuilt GO! Die Cutting Machine. All 10 patterns were a hit, but the first one to sell out was Quilter’s Flag. That was very exciting.  I showed three additional patterns as well.

Both of my new books were featured on the front table; Cascade of Quilts and Cascade of Quilting Essentials. I am very proud of these books, not only did I write the book, but I also did all the photography. I had a ball doing the covers.

AND… I saw my first fabric line from Blank Quilting on paper. It was there for a preview. It will be out in January and I can’t wait. I designed three new patterns for this line and just itching to put my fabric into them. My testers had a ball with the patterns.

I'm proud of my new fabric line...I just can't share it yet!

So now I have my new TO DO list. Three new companies have asked me to design for them. I will start working on my next collection for AccuQuilt GO! The ideas are flowing for this collection as the dies are simply adorable. And I just submitted two new fabric lines to Blank Quilting.

Just in case you are wondering, I did cook for my husband twice in the past two weeks. That’s not bad, right?

Here’s the biggest news….when I was in the AccuQuilt GO! booth and talking to the girls, Alex Anderson showed up. So I said to her, would you mind if I took a picture with you, as you hold up my quilts in your videos. She said SURE, do you have a new quilt with you…..of course I just happened to. So we are holding together my newest: Celebration of Love.

    I love your patterns, Barb! It’s tough to single one favorite out, but those 4-in-1 patterns are super versatile…got to love them. Trophy Case knows no limits. Your new pincushions just brighten up my day (and my sewing area). Keep those patterns coming!
