Set Up Day Mid-Atlantic Quilt Fest 2018......

Thought we would give you a peak at set up day:

 I should have taken a photo before we carried everything in, but I think you can get the idea....just blank white curtains and tables. We have learned a bit over the last 11 years of doing shows, we discuss or draw up a rough floor plan before we get to the show site even if we have the same spot as in previous years.  But....somehow....we always freak out at some point during set-up day....

Stacks of boxes....and stuff....somehow we need to organize this mess.

One wall looks good....what about the other...it takes 2 of us to hang those curtains and one of us (see that arm on the box above) is busy visiting with friends.....

 

 There is an old saying that goes....it gets worse, before it gets better....

 Usually right about now we begin to realize we brought too much "stuff" with us and that there is no way we are going to get everything out...no matter how hard we try...one of us always says.... well; after some things sell then we can get it out and it will look like a whole new booth....

This is about the point that the "younger one, who admits she was not blessed with "patience" walks away" while I "fancy it up"....trying to fit more in and make it look good.....

 

Finally finished....Open and Ready....

 

Last year we introduced two sizes of hand-dyed ric-rac....

 

So many colors, so much fun.....come on by Booth 1310...

Thanks so stopping by...
