Market Wrap Up

   Simply Put recently returned from vending at spring quilt market in SLC Utah. For the past 3 years I have been reworking my primitive designs with modern fabrics. 
This decision has led to several successful markets in a row. I'm able to reach a larger market and shops that would normally pass me by...stop and chat awhile. 
I walked away from Market determined to focus on designing this year. My new design Kaleidoscope Garden was picked up by Simply Modern magazine.  
Primitive Quilts and more magazine took 2 other designs (not able to show you those).  Simply Put will be distributed by Petersen-Arne and I did a live interview with a national blogger who was fascinated by my primitive to modern designs!  I will post links when that interview airs. 
Utah was a beautiful state and I left there feeling more inspired than I have been in a really long time, that in itself is priceless.

Congratulations, Laural! Lots of successes...and so deserving! I too love the way your designs can go 'either way' and look forward to seeing your patterns in the magazines! Can't wait to see your quilts up close and personal!! Big hug!
