Quilt Market Recap

We had a great time at International Quilt Market, May 16-18, 2014 in Pittsburgh, PA. This is our booth! Welcome to Cuddle World- The Softest Place on Earth™

We reconnected with old friends, met new friends, and showed off our beautiful new products! We were busy—we participated in Sneak Peek, Schoolhouse, Sample Spree and also gave hourly demos. Here’s a quick recap.

The day before the show opened, we had Schoolhouse. We showed new products (Cuddle™ Precuts, Cuddle Kits, and more), discussed a few favorite notions, and offered tips on how shops can partner with us for success. Here we are at Schoolhouse:
