Read MorePPC32: the Carolinian Pattern Cover Reveal
So… in our last post we had a little fun letting YOU be the designer and choosing which of our bag samples YOU would choose to grace the pattern cover for our 1st new pattern of 2025, the Carolinian.

So… the thing that makes planning so difficult for Quilt Festival, is that it comes right on the heels of and, in the same facility of the Quilt Market. Quilt Festival is of course, a retail show, but Market is strictly wholesale, our ONLY wholesale show of the year. And the thing is… I generally…

So… we’re less a couple of days away from the 2024 version of the International Fall Quilt Market and just so you know… I can’t believe that this will be our 17th straight Fall Quilt Market, (not counting 2020 & 2021, the Covid years, where Quilt Market was cancelled 2 years in a row). And…
