Bloomington, IN quilt show

We made it to Bloomington yesterday it was about an 8 hour drive. Today we got all set up and the show runs Thursday thru Saturday. If your in the Bloomington area stop in and see all the beautiful quilts in the convention center and be sure to stop in the annex for some great shopping.

Home again

I'm home for a few days, and during this time I will snowdye a few pieces, do laundry and get some orders out the door. I still have plenty of paperwork to do but that will wait until I get back next week. I leave on Wednesday for the Greater Dallas Guild Show as always if you go to the show and tell me you read my blog I will give you 10% off your order.

The show in Bloomington, IN was a good one and I will return next year. Saturday the convention center was so hot that people were getting sick and leaving. I was over in the annex and it was really nice there warm but not hot. I heard nothing but good comments on the show, the teachers, the quilts, the vendors everyone had a wonderful time except for the heat on Saturday. The reason it was so hot on Saturday in the convention center was the temps outside rose up to the mid 70's and nobody was expecting that. The heat was still on in and it's hard to switch over and change in such a short time. This show is always the first weekend of March so if you want to take some good classes with great teachers and see beautiful quilts this is a good show to attend.

Heritage Days Quilt Show, Bloomington, IN

We made it here to Bloomington, IN last night. It took us a little longer then we anticipated we had used our gps and it got us lost. It never told us to turn then all of a sudden it said recalculating so we had missed a turned somewhere, anyways around the block we went and finally got to our hotel. This morning I got all set up and below are a few pictures of my booth. I am in the annex from where the main show is at and I am the only handdyer so it should be a good show. I did take some time today and look at the quilts, the judges were still judging them and I thought I sure am glad I don't have that job. The quilt were absolutely beautiful, I had taken a ton of pictures but because of copyrite I choose not to show any of them on my blog. I know a lot of quilters get upset when they find their pictures published on other's blogs. Most of the quilts were art quilts and not to many of the traditional quilts. The show opens tomorrow and runs through Saturday. If you go to the show stop in and say hi and tell me read my blog and I'll give you 10% off your purchase.
