I recently returned from the Spring Quilt Market in Portland, Oregon. What a fantastic tradeshow. More than ever, I saw vintage/retro fabrics from all the fabric manufacturers — you should have no trouble finding these at your local fabric shops. The designs created with these fabrics were incredible. Designers such as  Valori Wells, Tanya Whelan, Joel Dewberry and the whole  Westminster group had fabulous showcases of their work in their booth. I also noticed a lot of new reproductions in all of the manufacturer's lines.

The inspiration and energy created by the designers and vendors at this show make you want to do nothing else but quilt and sew — If only I could.

Have fun in whatever you do creatively.
