Hello! I got back from my whirlwind trip to Houston just in time for Halloween with the kids then promptly settled into a head cold. Snarf!
I was so busy with my back-to-back meetings I hardly had a moment to get my camera out, except for this photo:
This is the booth of my good friend Jan DiCintio of Daisy Janie Organic Fabrics. This was her first trip to Quilt Market and she totally rocked it! I’m so proud of her for all that she has accomplished with her business and her gorgeous line of organic fabric, I just had to give her a shout out. And I’m not the only one blown away, she won the Best New Exhibitor Award! Woot!
This was my second market (“on foot”, no booth for me…yet!) and I felt much more confident this time around. My schoolhouse presentation on repurposing actually had attendees (phew!) and my ornament demo went well. My meeting schedule had me running but I still had time to catch up with some old friends and make new. All in all a personal success!
Once I get myself reorganized here I’ll post that Itty Bitty Ice Cream Ornament I demo’d at market. K? N’k.
Sounds like you have a great Market! Congrats!!!
Had such a great time meeting you, so glad we had a chance to chat in person! Wish I’d had more time, too–never did get to go by Jan’s booth, seemed like I was always on the run. Here’s hoping Salt Lake will be a little calmer–see you there!
It was great chatting with you at Fabric 2.0 and ‘officially’ meeting you. I’ve been thinking a lot about our conversation and I so appreciate your perspective.
Your schoolhouse was fab..are you going to make a pattern for the garland too đ
While I was very glad finally to meet you in person, I’m sorry we didn’t have more time to chat. I hope your meetings went well!
Jan did rock it! Great seeing you again.
It was a whirlwind for you, and I hope, as the dust settles, you’re finding some clarity…whoosh!! Missed you the last 2 days for sure!!! Thanks for the shout out – I am very grateful to have you as such a dear friend and can’t wait to see what life is like for us when the next QM rolls around! Much love Betz!
That does look like lovely fabric hanging in the booth, congratulations to Jan on winning the award! Sounds like it was a great market!
Sounds like the market was a blast!
I’m loving your ‘Sewing Green’ book that I got on Etsy… I wish I was in the US so I could attend one of your presentations! : )
