Hi guys! Here we are in Minneapolis, MN, finally (after the usual airplane delays, broken airplanes, aircraft changes, etc. You know the drill). No photos from traveling, because you'd probably just see some frustrated faces! Anyhoo, we're ready to see what Spring Quilt Market has to offer. (If you don't know what Market is, you can read about it in this previous post.)
We only got to stay for a little bit though, because...
Then we headed to Sample Spree!! Yes, it's every quilter's dream to rummage through Sample Spree. In fact, the first ladies to enter the room rushed in at full speed, shrieking like someone was chasing them! (Someone had asked if Sample Spree was a free-for-all; it can feel like it, yeah! The goods are future release lines usually, at greatly reduced prices so shops can get it ahead of time and make samples for their stores.)
Anyhoo, here's what waiting in line for this event looks like...well, it's even longer than it looks...
And the doors are finally opened! Hurrah! And watch out!
People we saw... Anne Sutton with a little "Scooter Pie" goodie made from her own fabric for Moda, Lily & Will! So darn in love with this line, especially since little Will Jolly is one of the namesakes!
And what we snagged for tonight's Sample Spree giveaway!! A Bliss Fat Quarter Bundle and a Maison de Garance Fat Quarter Bundle by Bonnie & Camille and French General!
