Hello everyone. My wife and I just got back from the quilt market in Salt Lake City. It was a very good show and there are a lot of new products, fabric and patterns. The big trends seem to be modern quilts, patterns for purses, web site marketing and attracting the young quilter.
The hot new fabric seems to be Riley Blake and Minki fabrics are making a big comeback.
There are lots of new gadgets like cutters with matching cutting boards that have a track to keep the cutting wheel in the groove, new quilt hangers, flower makers, purse handle makers, auto binding machines, etc...

Also...there was some jewelry made out of fabric that was so good looking that I just had to buy some for my wife. (thats my story...and I'm stickin to it)
It was more like arm twisting...but I'm a good husband and its my job to buy my wife jewelry.

If anyone is looking for anything specific, I'll give you the rundown on the new products available.
