International Quilt Market Part 3

So quilt market has been absolutely amazing. I've been walking the exhibits and taking in all the beauty. There are so many different booths all done so creatively and just gorgeous.    Below is the moda booth.  They were all decked out for Fall showing all the new fabric releases that will come in September, October and November.

Moda #quiltmarket Booth.  They won 2nd place for Booth Design!  

I have also been taking advantage of the make & takes, classes and book signings!  Here are some photos of the Lila Tueller fabric belt make and take:

Lila was showcasing her new fabric line Priscilla and the belts were so adorable and looked so easy to make.  She actually gave me the one she made.  It is shown here:

Although this was not a make and take, Lila was using this adorable pin cushion and thread catcher.  The pin cushion was weighted so it was stable on the edge of the table.  I am working on  a way to link up to that tutoriial.

Next it was back to Moda.  Here is the Zen Chic for Moda Booth.  If you loved Comma, Comma wait until you see her new line, Barcelona due out in the fall!

Sweetwater is continuing their tradition of printed fabric with Road 15.  This fabric tells the story of where "home" was for thousand of Sweetwater fans growing up as Road 15 was their street address for many years.  This fabric will be available in August and will be stocked in all pre-cut categories. 

 

Next it was on to the BasicGrey booth.  Unlike anything I have see in the past, this fabric perfectly combined many pleasing colors so well that they all come together flawlessly in Sweet Serenade.  This fabric will be released in August so keep your eyes out for this one!

My night ended with the Moda Customer Appreciation event.  After a short walk from my hotel to the River, I boarded the Portland Spirit.  It was no nice to meet some of the designers and put a real live face to the name and photographs we see.  It was also nice to get to know them on a personal level.  I learned a little about their families and what truly inspires them.  

The evening ended with beautiful  sunset.  All in all the day was another wonderful experience!
