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!

4th Annual Rooster Creek Quilt Show, 2019

Before the show I was able to interview, Teresa Cuno, the owner of Rooster Creek Quilting in Holts Summit, MO about this year's event.  Check it out here.

It was great to be able to see some great quilts, that were vintage, art, traditional, modern and some created by young quilters entered into the show. The winners of each category is posted in the Rooster Creek Quilter Facebook Group and on the Rooster Creek Quilting Facebook page.

This year I was able to have a vendor booth at the Rooster Creek Quilt Show. I love being able to share my work with other quilters.  This year I released several new patterns, including 3 new patterns that feature my Faux Batik Panel technique.

I also revamped my Little Escapes-A Day at the Beach pattern.

Finally, I was able to introduce my own greeting cards that feature some of my favorite quilts and quilted elements.

My booth was large enough to demo some of my favorite techniques.

It was great to meet others just as passionate about quilting as you are.

Thanks to Mike and Teresa Cuno, and all the Rooster Creek Quilters for a great show.  I love the new venue location.

I also want to send a special thank you to all my assistants Brooke, Riley, and Brett.  I could not have done it without you and your support.

Rooster Creek Quilt Show

My how time flies, when you are busy!  This July, the Rooster Creek Quilt Guild and the Rooster Creek Quilt Shop hosted their second Rooster Creek Quilt Show.  There were over 700 attendees for the three day event.

I was excited to participate as a vendor and as a demonstrator. 

Trip around my booth!

I gave six one hour demonstrations through out the event. 

On Thursday I gave demonstrations on free-motion quilting using the domestic machine.  On Friday I gave two different presentations on the variety of mixed media that you can use in your sewing and quilting projects.  Then on Saturday I demonstrated the ins and outs of foundation paper piecing.

My team and I posted the live demonstrations in my Facebook group, Linda B Creative.  Feel free to join the group and catch up on the fun we had!

Also at this event I launched my new pattern line and adult coloring book, Sew Very Sketchy.  It combines my love of sewing with adult coloring books.  Feedback has been great, and I am excited to tell you more about them later.

A special shout out to my team of helpers that made everything go smoothly, Brett, Sheri, Brooke and Riley!  I could not have done it without you!
