The quilt market is not just about quilts anymore. These days there are numerous displays of bags, clothes and anything else you can make out of cotton fabric. The booths themselves are a sight to behold. In fact, there is a competition within the market for best booth displays. It's a bunch of fun.
I may just have to take up garment sewing again after seeing these...
... And for kids...
There were several displays that featured chair seats covered in fabulous fabrics. The Alexander Henry booth went all out with that theme.
There is nothing like a pillow to display your colleciton of fabrics.
As for the booths, looky here. Do you recognize her? This is Eugene's own Sheila Sinclair Snyder doing a demonstration and book signing.
Twice during the market, I heard the words decoupage and Mod Podge. In fact, there is a new book out about using the 10 different kinds of Mod Podge to create decoupage creations. I remeber (yes, I am that old) getting together with friends in my early teens and using this stuff with pictures from magazines. I have to say though that nothing like what you see here ever came from our little craft sessions. This decoupaged jaguar from the Anna Maria Horner booth won a prize. It was pretty awesome.
