It's finally here!!!!!
preview night for the international Quilt show in chicago.
I love the quilt show.
It's like heaven would be, if God had a sewing machine.
Plus, it's preview night. The first night of the show, just a few hours, and no busloads of old lady quilt groups. They come by the busload on saturday. But on preview night, the locals who drive themselves in ones and twos get to invade.... and that's where all the good shopping happens. I have this little rule. I can't buy anything new at the quilt show until i use up what i bought at last year's quilt show. And boy, did i cut it close this time. The tops are finished for the two flannel quilts for up north that i made from last year's purchases. I'm convinced that if i intend to send them off to be longarm quilted, then technically, except for the binding, i AM finished with them, which means i get to go shopping again.
