fabric shopping and a giveaway…

One of my duties at market was to accompany the Intrepid Thread on appointments with Fabric Reps….such a fun job!!  I thought you might enjoy a few pictures…

Future fabric lines are usually presented on these story boards….


inside pictures show the different prints in the line and colorways it will be available in….

I enjoyed reading about the inspiration for this new line…printed on the front of this story board.
We enjoyed visiting with Mr. David, the owner of Andover Fabrics…Julia in the front of this picture is Julie’s rep with Andover.  So fun to see what is coming in the months ahead….
This week’s giveaway….more market goodies and fabric, of course!  Do you know the line??
