Vending at the Rooster Creek Quilt Show

 It was great to be vendor at the Rooster Creek Quilt Show, July 10th-12th. I love that my passion has become my career. This was a fabulous show to promote my business, Linda Bratten Creations.  In my booth I sold my patterns, workbooks and embroidery designs.



  At the show I did live demonstrations two times a day. On Thursday, I shared my love of free motion quilting on a table top or domestic sewing machine.  Friday was my scrap busting day where I shared how I store my scraps and then demonstrated a quick way to utilize them to make blocks for future projects.  Finally, on Saturday, my love of textile paints provided a quick demonstration for those who do not feel like an artist, but would like to try the technique.



In addition, I was able to have Rooster Creek Quilt Guild member, Rachel McKee, to assist me in the booth.  I want to give a big shout out to her for taking over when I was out of the booth!



It was great to work with the vendors this year.  Mike Cuno, owner of Rooster Creek Quilting in New Bloomfield, MO, assisted me as we did a Facebook live about the vendors. You can see the live in the next 30 days by clicking here.



If your guild is having a show and are looking for vendors or demonstrators, please fill out a contact form on my website: www.LindaBrattenCreations.com.



It is always great to share my love of sewing and quilting with others!

On the Road Again!

 Tonight, July 8, 2025, I am sharing the importance and various ways to add and create labels to your quilts with the Olathe Quilters Guild, in Olathe, KS.


My program, Telling Your Story, is also a trunk show of my personal quilts and their labels along with some personal stories.

I have in the past created a blog post about quilt labels.  You can access it here: Linda B Creative: What Should You Write on a Quilt Label?

If this is a program your guild would be interested in, be sure to reach out to me through my website: www.LindaBrattenCreations.com and I will send a PDF document that lists the programs and workshops I offer!

It is a busy week, so keep checking back to find out more.
