OK City Winter Quilt Show

We made it to OK City last night. It was about a 6 hour drive so really not to bad. We did have a little rain/snow as we left home but just enought to put some spots on the windshield and the roads were good all the way here. This is what is outside my hotelroom window when I look northwest you can see the front of the convention center and the skyline of the city.
This picture was taken out my window of Brick Town to the east. Brick Town is the area where all the night life and restraunts are.
Today is the day we set up at the convention center. We have a georgeous day the temps are suppose to be in the mid to lower 60's today and it feels like it this afternoon. This picture is the line of cars still waiting to unload. Set up time was 11:00 am and we got there at 10:30. We were really lucky since this picture was taken from our room at 1:30 after we were set up. I wonder what it's going to be like when we have to take down.
This is my booth. As you can see I have acorner booth this time so I have 2 sides open. I also decided to try something different this time and I have fat quarters of batiks and handdyes besides my snowdyed fabric. Let's see how this works my bundles weren't selling very well so I decided to take them apart also kits aren't selling either. It's probably because of the cost of handdyes. I hear people say all the time handdyes are so expensive. They don't realize all the work that goes into dyeing fabric.

OK City Quilt Show

I have everything all packed up and ready to go. We leave in the morning for the Winter Quilt Show in OK City, OK. This is the 8th year they are putting this on and they have all been great shows. If your in the area stop in and be sure to say HI! Mention you read it on my blog and get 10% off. I'm hoping the weather stays good, they are calling for freezing rain and snow in the morning.
