I don’t get out much at market to drool and be inspired as I'm pretty tied to my booth and doing what I'm there for, but on a few runs down the aisles I snapped what took my attention. I thought you’d like to see some of the wonderful things I managed to snap….

The International Quilt market is a trade only show held twice a year – Spring rotates to different cities around the USA whilst Fall is always in Houston and is followed up by Festival – which is for all to attend as most of you would know about. This year we were in Salt lake City Utah.

All manner of exhibitors attend to show their wares and the latest and greatest products, trends, notions, tools, patterns and trims….anything that can be sold to a business in the quilt and soft craft industry.  It can even include things like accounting programs, websites, anything you can think of really…

I make the trip normally once a year to sell my wares, show my designs, put my heart on my sleeve and hope that someone in the quilting world will like and want it.

For other market trend reports visit these sites who had much more time for a good look.
