What a great first day at H+H Americas in Chicago – a trade show for quilt shop owners like me! I had 6 classes this afternoon – four about a variety of new notions/fabrics, one with By Annie where she introduced her four new patterns and one with Lori Holt (I got a picture after her presentation and whoa, I am very jet lagged in that picture, I have been up since 2:00am!). Tomorrow, the trade show floor is open so I am going to spend my day looking at over 250 booths choosing the latest and greatest goodies for everyone (and try and find Lori Holt to get a well rested picture with her!) – stay tuned for new pictures tomorrow!
