Jay McCarroll, the winner of the first season of Project Runway was at Quilt Market with two new collections of fabrics with Free Spirit. And I had the delight of meeting Jay as well as have my picture taken with him.
I read more on the internet about Jay. As a winner of Project Runway, he was awarded $100,000 but turned it down. At the time, their contract said that they would own a percentage of all his professional ventures in perpetuality. Wow, what a clause! It had to have taken a lot of courage to turn down the money and I admire him for it. (Project Runway no longer has this clause, thank goodness.)
Please check back as I have much more to show from Quilt Market as well as information on my newest fabric collection – coming soon – Its a Dog’s Life!
