If you listened to our podcast with Annie of Simple Arts, you will have heard that there is a sale going on in the Lizzie B shop! Â All patterns and kits are 30% off, but you’ll need to enter the code for the discount upon checkout. Â It is MARKET09. Â The new book is NOT on [...]
Oh, boy. The Lizzie B girls are so often up late. Â In fact, we totally don’t even GET the old saying “Early to bed, early to rise” Â when we are together! Â We get so much done in those wee hours of the morning… even if we DO have to rise early (to bake cookies, for [...]
The last day of Market is bittersweet… I think everyone must feel a bit the same. Â Totally exhausted. Â Needing sleep (and a bed of one’s own!). Â Sad to say goodbye to friends in the industry. Â Sad to tear down all the fun, amazing booths on display. Â And REALLY not looking forward to the packing-up, hauling-it-out, [...]

WooHOO! Â Whimsyland has come to life… JUST as we saw it in our heads a few weeks or months ago. Â We took the pages and feel of our new book, and re-created it all here on the trade show floor so that quilt shop owners could SEE just what they were getting into when ordering [...]
Set-up day is always an exhausting day at Market. Â It’s haul everything in, move it around several times, and then more, then start the booth-construction. Â Liz and I are pretty good at knowing exactly what the booth looks like…. it’s been in our head for several weeks now, if not months. Â We have lots of [...]
It’s market time again! Every time we head off to market, we fly in, hit the ground running, and work work work ‘til the trade show is over. This time around, we decided to build in a day or two at the beginning, and one at the end, for some R&R. What a great idea! [...]
