I am sitting in class with Paula Prass… how cool is this lady!? Jealous much? 😀
Quilt Market Chronicles – Episode 2 – Paula Prass
Quilt Market Chronicles – Episode 1 – Anna Horner!!
Just sat through a class with Anna Maria Horner where she was showing off some of her new fabrics and such. You’re gonna love her new stuff! I’ll get pictures of the fabric soon. 🙂 I asked her where she wanted to take her new line and she said that it was more of a clothing weight fabric – very flowy. She was excited about the accompanying patterns that feature the fabric well this year too. Fun fun!
We’ve arrived at Quilt Market!!
Look out Dallas, the MSQC ladies are here! 😀
We’ve safely arrived, we ended up getting less sleep than expected, but we should have expected that! Here we are heading to our first full day. (Sorry it’s such a bad picture, I can only blog photos from my phone, so they’ll be a bit blurry, but at least you can still enjoy the festivities with us!)
It’s A Shipping Revolution!!
This is an excerpt from the MSQC’s Shipping page and I thought it may be of interest to you readers, I’ll post it over on facebook as well, but finally, some decent shipping for the rest of the world! We appreciate all the support from beyond our borders, we couldn’t do it without you! 😀 –
The Missouri Star Quilt Company is pleased to announce new and improved shipping rates for ALL our valued customers (I’m looking at you Canadians and International clients!). Don’t worry U.S customers, we’re leaving the $5 flat shipping alone, and we’re even adding in some brand new stuff for you too! So without further adieu, here they are:
U.S. Orders
$5 flat shipping on all orders up to $99.99 (you liked this, we listened, we kept it)
FREE shipping on all orders over $100! (this is one of the best shipping rates going, period)
Canadian Orders
$15 flat shipping on all orders up to $149.99 (to help keep costs down for our northern friends)

Pretty awesome we think!! Let the quilting spread, tell your friends cause we’re excited! Seriously, if you’re in Australia, Sweden, or Scotland, get some friends together, put in a big order, shipping is FREE, can you beat it? I submit that you cannot! 🙂
In other news, we’ll be at the International Quilt Market sometime in the morning, it’s been a long day of slim jims from gas stations and girl time, but I’m loving it! Can’t wait to get down there and see all the quilting rock stars! I’ll be reporting soon 🙂
Hello, Fall. Quilt Market, Road Trip, Twitter and more!
Is this year flying by, or what!?!? I am still not over the fact that school is back in session…..summer went by in a flash. But fall inevitably leads to winter. (oh-my, not ready for that for sure!) I do LOVE the seasons, however and I have decided to embrace fall.
We are gearing up for Market this weekend (holla if you’re going to be there!), and I can NOT wait to see all the new stuff! It is going to be amazing and fun…..and I plan on keeping you all in the ‘know’ this year!
Us girls are road tripping there. We are gonna have a crazy-wild time. Our ride there is going to be insane! We are leaving after we give a presentation to a Guild in Kansas City…..we will drive straight there, hopefully getting to Houston by 3 am. Then Friday we have classes lined up from 10am-8pm then sample spree from 8pm- 10 pm!
Whew, if you didn’t think (know) we were crazy before, I am pretty sure this sums it up perfectly! 🙂 BUT, after the crazy days that are Thursday and Friday, we should have plenty of time to meet everyone, see everything and even attend a few parties!
Have I mentioned how extremely excited I am to go!? Seriously ALL the people….all the designers…all the FABRIC….Oh, MAN.
Just so you know….we will be blogging and tweeting (that’s right, we’re on Twitter now, follow us!) about everything. You want answers to what ‘they’ are wearing, doing, selling!?!?!? We will try to answer those questions and ANY others you might have! Ask away.
Seriously…..what have you always wanted to know about Market? About any designer, manufacturer, etc ….I will seriously be your “Geraldo Rivera” of Market. ( Minus that hair. I am not afraid to ask the tough questions.) 🙂
Bring it on! Ask away….and I will LET you know.
*******UPDATE*******
This is the Young Single Good Looking Computer Guy (YSGLCG) here, and I thought you may have trouble recognizing Sarah at Quilt Market if she’s in her Geraldo Rivera mode, so I ran some calculations and came up with her approximate look she should have while there so you all can find her. Remember, this woman is a master of disguises, and this is approximate, so use your own judgement, but this should help.
