Susan and I and our daughters, Bronwen and Lindsay, travelled to International Quilt Market in Portland last week. It was great to have the girls with us. They could give us a young person's view of the quilting industry!
We spent a day shopping in Portland - great 'finds' at Powell's bookstore and Nordstrom Rack!

Then it was time for Booth Setup - we could only hang a few quilts since we needed to show most of them at 'Schoolhouse' - that's mini-lectures where shop owners and teachers could see our Fat Quarter Frenzy Two quilts 'up close' and hear all about our new Give & Take Applique patterns.

After Schoolhouse, we finished setting up the booth - we sure had a lot to show this time.

Now it's time to process all those orders for patterns and work on ideas for the Fall!
