It was my first Market. The first time I have had a chance to join Alex in this sea of booths. The show is for businesses selling to businesses. It’s a cacophony of sounds and smells. It’s an organized carnival of vendors who show and explain and talk and laugh. It’s a outdoor bazaar carried on indoors.
There are beautiful quilts everywhere you turn. There are fabrics from around the world—Asia, India, Europe and Japan. The fabrics form a garden of colors in every shade. There are solids and prints and special designs. At some booths I couldn’t figure out what they were selling and I was too embarrassed to ask. There were sewing machines of all sizes, and tools, rulers, triangles and stencils. Some booths had items for consumers and some had programs and aids for shop owners. There were magazines and books. There were a lot of famous quilters I recognized from Simply Quilts. Mostly I remember friendly neighbors and people saying “It’s a New Day” and getting a special “TheQuiltShow.com” pin.
But now I’m home while Alex travels on to Pennsylvania. She called on the answering machine. She had several concerns. Here are the answers:
See you soon.
