I just returned from the fall Quilt Market in Houston. Quilt Market is always such a wonderful show, inspirational and full of “eye candy” with all the colorful booths, fabrics and quilts. Another fun aspect of the show is that it is also a time to catch up with old friends as well as make new ones.
A new friend is Gina Halladay, 
who I met a few months ago at Spring Quilt Market in Salt Lake City.
Gina is the author of the immensely popular and leading quilt blog, QuiltersBuzz. She took her love of quilting and used it to spread the word throughout the world on fabrics, products, people, quilts, patterns and all kinds of other interesting tidbits. Gina is now considered the voice of the quilting world so be sure to check out Gina’s writings on QuiltersBuzz.
Gina is standing in her beautiful and colorful booth at market. She and Stephanie Goudzwaard pictured below are partners with Threaded Pear, a 
new pattern company that debuted at Spring Quilt Market. Sewing is very hot and the patterns of Threaded Pear are perfect for the sewing enthusiasts as well as beginners. As you can see from the photo, their booth stayed busy throughout the show, 
just like it did at the Spring Quilt Market where they were an instant success. Check out their website and see how they got started as well as see the patterns.
Please check back for more from Quilt Market.
