The Project Runway 70s style was great---even though I felt a little culturally deprived at times, and Judy&amp;#39;s class was fantastic.  Thank you for bringing in some great vendors.

What a cool idea! It got me thinking about taking some of my own work and doing something similar. Maybe this is fodder for a future Quilting Arts story! Thanks for sharing all these fun photos of Chicago.

Thank you so much for the great times at the QA booth, the luncheon, and chatting with me at the show. You really made my day.  My weekly quilt this week is made from leftovers/trash from the luncheon, which I plan to post to my blog tonight. Thanks again!
