The first day of International Quilt Market is jam-packed with classes. The day started out early at 7:30 a.m. correcting errors on our class schedules. Then from 8 a.m. - 8 p.m., we attended a total of 17 classes on a wide array of topics. We attended classes taught by such well-known designers as Jinny Beyer, Ricky Tims, Robin Pandolph and Alex Anderson. We learned about new lines of fabric, new notions and tools, and business operations. Then, when we thought we couldn't do one more thing, it was time for Sample Spree. The frantic frenzy of hundreds of quilters racing into a room to buy fat quarter bundles of the new lines of fabric is something to experience. And of course, we had to experience it all! After a full day, we finally sat down to a late dinner after 10 p.m. and crashed in our room at 11. Tomorrow begins the actual market.
