In the meantime, C&T blogged about my book on Friday. Here's the link. Check it out -- it shows several of the projects and features the introduction from the book. Leave a comment and let me know what you think.......
I Love Precut Quilts! Blog Post
________________________________________________________________________________
Now I don't normally vend at shows because I'm more of a designer/quilter/author/lecturer but one of our local shows, Octoberfest, lowered its fee so I thought I'd take a chance since I have umpteen quilts that need to find new homes. (Honestly, I think I need to start a quilt adoption program.)
Although sales weren't that great and I went home with almost all the quilts that I took with me -- umm, that was around 66 -- I had a great time and did a lot of networking about my book, lectures, teaching, etc. So, maybe this show will surprise me at some point in the future.
Here's some pics of my booth. I was pretty luck that the vendor diagonal to me never showed so I, of course, offered to fill the space with quilt eye candy. (wink, wink!)
Very nice and I can't wait for the book to come out!
ReplyDeleteNice booth. I got to show off (not sell) some of my vintage machines. Since I've been doing this longer than any of the others, and, since I was the first in this building, I get more space (Woohoo!) and can spread out almost as much as I want. I'm not a precut fan. I like to prewash my fabrics, since I've had problems with quilt quality fabrics bleeding, especially in the last few years. I'd rather cut my own fabrics (and I hate cutting). It does look like a nice book. Good luck.
