This morning I started to look through some of my photos of Quilt Market in Houston last week, and wanted to share a small overview,
 |
| this is a view of the Convention Center from the park across the street |
 |
| The park (Discovery Green) is an unthinkably huge! improvement over the gravel parking lot that used to ocupy the space |
 |
| it's a nice place to walk through now |
 |
| this is a view of the vendor's booth area taken from an escalotor, it goes on for 22 long aisles |
We spent lots of time in the Westminster Fabrics booth. Each designer had a little area featuring some quilts, smaller items and a mannequin showing the fabric in the upcoming lines:
And in a ring around the Westminster booth were smaller booths where the designers had their own presentation.
For example, this is David Butler, aka Parson Gray:

| close-up just because |
 |
| Tula Pink's booth, I liked the VWcushions |
 |
| a view of the moda booth--lots of ordering fabric going on |
And in the other end of the convention center were the quilt shows. What would be a post without a good quilt to end with?

I've made it twice, and today I have photos of another version, sewn; up by Val,
She sewed the full size version, and maybe added another row or two to the center, which makes it a bit more rectangular,
It uses a Jelly roll from Westminster fabrics featureing Kaffe Fassett fabrics, and she paired it with a gorgeous dark blue shot cotton, 
I love how it turned out! It is so much fun to see this quilt sewn up in different fabrics,
