OMG.......Day 2

OMG......our feet hurt! Today was the first day of the actual trade show at quilt market. We started off the day taking another class, we each took a different one. Then, the rest of the day was spent at the trade show. We walked and walked and walked - and we're only half way through the vendors! We saw several pattern designers and companies from Kansas - who knew there were so many! We picked up lots of vendor information and tonight we're going to go through what we have and decide if we want to go back and order anything. Tomorrow we'll have to go faster than we did today or we won't make it through the whole show. When the market closed, one of our sales reps and the owner of the company took us out for supper. Food was good, but the restaurant was so noisy we could hardly hear each other.


The highlight of the day (for Sharla) was we met "Moda Home Mom" in the Moda booth. She's the one who talked about our wordle quilt on her blog which resulted in all the visitors to our site (yesterday we had a visitor from Tel Aviv, Israel!) Here's Sharla & Angela....


We have one more day of market, then we'll head for home on Monday.
