Lehmann Quilting

Genii Lehmann of Lehmann Quilting had an awesome array of quilts and a friendly and outgoing personality. Her table runners, like “Jacob’s Jazz” an “Eclipse” are teriffic designs and her “Jigsaw” quilt is cute, cute, cute!

Keri

Be sure you are sitting down for this one – her designs are beautiful! Keri Duke of Keri Designs has quilt patterns, cross stitch and needlepoint as well as specialty ribbons and threads. Her lovely booth was one of those you just walk around in saying “ohhhh, ahhhh”. I didn’t get a close up, but the grapes on the quilt hanging in front looked good enough to eat!

MorninGlory Designs

Ohhhhh la la! That’s what you say when you see these stylish jackets – at least that’s what we said! Friendly, outgoing gals were eager to show us their jackets and don’t they look sleek? Wouldn’t they be perfect with a Lazy Girl Bag? MorninGlory Designs is hot!

Grandma’s Secret Spot Remover

These were, without a doubt, the nicest sweetest and most helpful people to me at Quilt Market in fall 2007. The lady (I didn’t write down her name!) attended a demo that I did and jumped in and helped where she saw a need. I want to go throw spaghetti sauce on a quilt just to use their spot remover!

GE Designs


Gudrun Erla enjoyed a productive show with her GE Designs. I just love the diamonds in her “Strip ‘N’ Dip”.

Florine Johnson Designs

Florine Johnson is the creator of Rowdy and his pals “Those Radical Roosters” and I’ve loved them ever since she first introduced them years ago. She has steadily added to the collection and it’s a lively and popular group! There are now enough for the Block-of-the-Month and Florine offers this and a set of notecards and more on her website. It was a rare occurrence to catch her booth without a crowd around or in it.

della Q

The silks were the first thing that stopped us at Della Quimby’s booth and the Vietnamese Sewing Project was the second. della Q introduces fabrics and more at Spring Quilt Market.

Curve Master Presser Foot

If you’ve always wanted to sew curved seams and been afraid to you just have to check out the Curve Master Presser Foot. Invented by a quilter, just for quilters this foot is simply amazing. I’ve watched the demo and after seeing it in use I honestly believe that I can take on some of the quilt designs with those lovely circles and curves. Read a few other reviews of the foot here….

Big Fork Bay Cotton Company

My photos just don’t do these quilts justice. The wolf is stunning, the bison is majestic and the new french bistro patterns are fun and sassy. Graciously willing to let their booth be photographed, the Big Fork Bay Cotton Company had a truly inspiring booth.

Bear Paw Productions

Brenda Henning is a pro at Quilt Market and a very accomplished author, designing and publishing her own patterns and books under her business name of Bear Paw Productions. She calls Alaska home and teaches at Quilt Tree in Anchorage. In the middle is Trish Stuart, also a very talented lady who is a former Alaskan. Trish is a pattern designer, quilt book author and publisher and traveling teacher. Trish is giving a big hug to Sarah Raffuse, another Alaskan quilt book author who co-wrote Crazy Shortcut Quilts. Those Alaskan gals are awesome!
