Fall Market 09: We've arrived! and Sample Spree Giveaway...

** Thanks for entering! This giveaway is now CLOSED!! **

We're here!! After a long, arduous...3 hours in the car (yes, that is very tongue-in-cheek, and kudos to all you certain folks who drove halfway across the country in your cargo vans) we have arrived here at the Fall 2009 International Quilt Festival in Houston! What happened tonight? Fabric 2.0 Lite, hosted by J. Caroline, and Sample Spree! (Snagged some goodies for a giveaway -- keep reading!)

We arrived late afternoon, so didn't get to do any Schoolhouse :( But the Fabric 2.0 event was fun...met some Twitter peeps and other shops, including the host Caroline (who is soooo friendly & fun)!


 Then headed over to Sample Spree, where we bought a little bit of this, a little bit of that...


I don't have a picture, but Debbie was so wild about her Allie sample that she bought from Bunny Hill Designs!

Some pretty quilts caught our attention...this is from the Me to You table, and uses some Flower Sugar <3


Saw some familiar faces :)

Now how cute is that? Melly & Me, with their Hooty and Tweet softies!

So nice to put faces to names! Met Vickie, Julie & Rachel

Reminder to self: restock on these Carolina Patchwork patterns, they're fantastic...

More yummy fabric at Red Rooster's table


Ran into the French General -- Kaari Meng! Her new line Rural Jardin is...sigh! Still waiting for Rouenneries yardage to drop!! Hurry hurry, Moda!

Stopped to admire this Meet Me in the Meadow display at Jillily's table...

SAMPLER BOXES! Moda Bake Shop's newest!!

And the Moda chaos only beginning...

Ain't Sample Spree a beautiful thing?

We smuggled some of these beauties back to our room...Moda's newest Bake Shop addition, the Sampler box!! Aren't they smart?? I'm using way too many punctuation marks in this paragraph, but we love them so much...we hope you do too!


The Moda Bake Shop Sampler box comes stocked with 12 packs of 40 - 2 1/2" squares. Each pack is a new Moda release...hence you get to sample a little bit of 12 lines. SWEET! It also includes projects & templates for charm quilts, as well as the history of charm quilts. The groups for this season's box include Bar Harbor, Butterfly Garden, Collection for a Cause: Charity, Eden, Frolic, Garden Party, Lakeside Resort, Looking Back, Martinique, Spring Fever, Verna and Whimsy. AND, this box is available in November, so you get to sample the fabric waaaay before the line even comes out in Feb/Mar 2010! I think it makes a perfect gift, just in time for the holidaaaaays...

So here's how you can help us...we have just added the Moda Bake Shop Sampler Box to our store's Coming Soon page. If you wish to be notified when the Sampler box arrives in our store, let us know via Kimberly's e-mail address in the pink paragraph below the Sampler box, so we can get a good idea of how many to order at our Moda meeting! That way we can have enough for all!


Help us, help you! ;)

Yeah and of course...the giveaway! So what have you heard about in Twitterverse and Blogland about Market? Who would you like us to visit and paparazzi? Comment on this post (gets you 1 entry) and or send us a tweet (for another entry) to let us know, and 5 winners will receive these super sweet Sampler boxes! We'll announce the winner next week!

For now good night...tweet & talk more tomorrow :D

  1. I would like to know who the 3 sisters are that design for Moda? I thought found there website once but it looked pretty non-descript for the fab fabrics that they design... are they that illusive?

    ReplyDelete
  116. The other members of the Jolly Jabber INEEDTOKNOWRIGHTNOW Club kicked me out last night for falling asleep. They said some nonsense about me snoring while I was waiting for you to finish your market post.

    I love your post, I love your pics. Love. Love. Love your market posts!

    PS... Now I have exclamationitis - which I caught from you. I mean... which I caught from you!!!

    ReplyDelete
  117. You should have warned us first - there is some serious drooling going on here! I just love the idea of those Sampler Boxes and I would be in heaven with Jillily's yellow and white quilt. And as for that table stacked with packs of fat quarters at what, to me in the UK, are such amazingly good prices - I am so envious! May the rest of Market be even better - if that's possible!

    ReplyDelete
  118. Any chance of getting a sneak peek at "Rural Jardin"?...I'm so glad French General is designing fabrics!...Katie

    ReplyDelete
  119. Love it all! Many booth pics please! Thanks much!

  125. So much inspiration in one place. WOW! Thanks for sharing the wonderful pictures that you took. I almost feel like I'm there. Wish I was, I just hate missing out on all the fun.

    I really love the concept of the sampler box. How fun to have a small bit of 12 fabric lines all in one box. I don't think I could even open it and use it. I'd probably have to buy two boxes one to use and one to look at. LOL!

    ReplyDelete
  126. WOWZA! Moda have got it soooo right, those bake shop sampler boxes look truly good enough to eat. And Im starving!! xxxxxxxxx nicola

  133. Those sample boxes are brilliant! Can't wait for that one.

    I'm excited for Sandi Hendersons new line, Meadowsweet. I'd love to see what she's made with her samples and get a few early project ideas!

  134. Anything French General! Could you track down Mark Linpinski and ask him what the hooty-hoo is going on with him quitting everything?? Quilter's Home sans Mark makes no sense to me. Argh!!

  183. Eyads, as another Aussie by residence, I think like Ellen Easter, I'd be standing there stunned like a deer in the headlights. Starting with Moda, and with all the fabric lines Moda has I don't know how I'd extract myself!

The pictures are so wonderful and almost, almost make me feel like I'm there, thanks for sharing them. AND those new Bake Shop sample boxes...***sigh*** to die for, what a wonderful idea! They would make beautiful gifts, decorations or...fit nicely into my Millenium quilt, lol. Great stuff, thanks again!

  196. The pictures I saw from the market were absolutely great! Everything seems to be soooo busy and fun. Digging through miles of Patchwork and Quilting.
    Unfortunately I didn't had the chance to go as its located in a land called FarFar away! :o) (at least if you want to go from Germany!)
    BUT... in the case I would go, I would like to visit Fig Tree Quilts. I am absolutely addicted to the designs of Joanna!
