To Market I go!

Yes I am going to the insanity known as The Fall International Quilt Market in Houston! I am sooo incrediblt excited to meet so many awesome people I have only know through the internet. Which is a good thing seeing as I'm rooming with 4 women I've never met! 

 Who are the people you would most want to meet? Or what questions would you ask? Leave a comment letting me know and I'll try to get everyone favorite celeb with a mini interview!

I've had my business cards printed and I pick them you tomorrow!! Which I am so excited about! The awesome and lovely Bari J, after seeing my attempts told me they offended her and took over and designed me these amazing cards!!! I can't not say enough thank yous for them! I feel more confident and professional just having them!
 
 and the back is as cool!

I am so excited but also super scared! I'm going to be showing my patterns to some distribution companies, and other fabric co's in hope they'll let me design with their fabrics too!

Oh and the winner of my Thanksgiving post is....gill! Send me an email and I'll get your treat out to you soon!

Oh I'm so excited for you! And you will blow them away with your designs!! You know it's really just whether your design fits with their company, not if your design is good or not. I don't have any questions so just go have fun for me!!
