- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 มิ.ย. 2024
- QuiltCon 2024 was last week in Raleigh, North Carolina. Not only did it break attendance records, the quilt show was bigger than ever. Quiltcon also has a vendor hall where you get to meet the people behind the brands, see new products, and take items for a test drive. And when I got home everyone asked me what did I bring home? Well, stick with me and I'll show what I found.

I inadvertently did a smart thing. I have old friends in Raleigh. I brought a lap quilt to give to one of them, which left a good amount of room in my suitcase for some new fabric and other goodies. Win win!
Smart 👏👏👏
At my age and using an electric wheelchair, a trip to QuiltCon is not feasible. So thank you Karen, for your virtual videos for those of us unable to attend. Very enjoyable and informative.
Karen, I don't know if you realized...when you began talking about the fabric you found, your enthusiasm and excitement rose about 200 percent. It made me laugh out loud. I can so relate!
Not a bad QuiltCon haul, Karen! It was a pleasure meeting you while wandering through the show on Thursday. Thanks for graciously posing for a selfie with me and my friend! It was the highlight of the show for me.
Thank you
The mini quilt with the barn quilt is precious!!
It is adorable! Is there a pattern available?
Great info. Just turned to my hubby and said, “Let’s go to QuiltCon next year, it’s in Phoenix.” He said “OK” so I’ll be there 😀😀😀
🎉🎉🎉
Join the MQG in time to register for classes in August, if that’s something you’d like to do. A lot of them fill up on the first day.
Thank you for sharing. I’m hoping to attend next year. I joined the Modern Quilt Guild. As a newbie of only two years, although, I’m a confident beginner, I’m feeling a more of a modern Quilt person than the traditional. It has been fun always watching you and you are the one who has taught me with this techniques. I always recommend your videos to newbies. Someone commented recently in my Featherweight Group that I was a very accomplished quilter and I commented no I’m just not accomplished learner. you are one of the best instructors on technique that I’ve ever seen! Keep it up.
Good for you 🤗🤗🤗
Karen, I smiled through this whole video😊. So many things! Thanks for sharing. It's the ppl! Yes! The art quilts are absolutely stunning!
Great finds!
Once a fabric-holic, always one 😂 Not an insult, I promise. You are among friends.
I think you showed amazing restraint!,
Quilt Con is on my Bucket List!
QuiltCon 2024 was amazing! I've wanted to attend since 2020 when I started watching your videos, and I finally got the chance in 2024. Meeting you was the icing on the cake; it felt like talking to an old friend. I wish we could have talked longer, but I had to step aside so others could have the chance to chat with you. You're just as lovely in person as you are in your videos. I'm honored you included our picture in this video. I hope you enjoyed the convention and learned new things. Thank you for inspiring us to make quilts!
It was lovely to meet you too
For the cork- try a wallet first. I hate bulky fabric wallets. But cork is thin and sturdy. And most patterns come with lots of card slots. I've been using my cork wallet for 3+ years and love it.
What a great time - so happy you chose to 'attend' Quilt Con and enjoy meeting your friends and viewers.
We lucked out this year. Quilt Con was only an hour away this year so me and my friends made a day trip of it.
As a member of a traditional quilt guild, i loved getting a chance to see and enjoy fully modern quilts.
The protest quilts are the most fascinating thing for me. They're like posters made of fabric
They are so impactful
I'm glad you got to just enjoy 😉 the show! Self-care? - Check!
Thank you
My husband and I were in Branson this last week! Our first quilt show! Amazing!
My goodness Karen I was surprised at the restraint you had in not buying more to take home.
I also live in Canada and the cost of shipping those items we can’t easily get here can be shocking so I can imagine I would have been shopping with that thought in my head.
I also loved that you went to a marble place. I collect them and I would love to go there. You have given me an idea for a summer road trip!
Looking in from Melbourne Australia
My mother used to make me play marbles with my brothers. She always made me give their marbles back after I won them all.
Now you have me wanting some new rulers. I don't need more rulers. A quilt show can be a lot of fun. However, I always spend too much money when I attend one. I have learned to stay away from quilt shows, if I attend to wear a mask. Some people will go out of their way to be rude to me (when I wear a mask). I'm getting over a bad sinus infection; so, I will be staying away from the Regional Quilt Show to be held in Morehead, Kentucky, sometime this month. The vendors are going to miss me.
I always have a budget
I had a good laugh, when you said, I guess that is why my stash is so large! Who can resist pretty fabric🤗.
I will be attending next year as I live just outside of Phoenix. I attended the last time it was here and was blown away!
Made me 😂 that you bought fabric! 15 years and counting. Looked like fun, wish I lived your side of the pond.
I was at quilt con and saw you “buzzing” around. Couldn’t catch ya. Quiltcon was a wonderful experience.
I'm so sorry I missed you at QuiltCon!
Awesome quilt, a masterpiece, thank you for sharing, want to se more of your quilts,
You got some great things to bring home. I see some real enjoyment ahead. Fun to see you venturing a little out of your comfort zone. That backing really does go well with your UFO package, nice find. I haven't seen fat quarter yardage in awhile. I always thought that was pretty cool. I recognize quite a few faces in your photos. I see why those quilts caught your attention...for me, especially the horse one.
That was actually a quilt bee 🐝 quilt. I just love that one
It looks like you came home with some great things and especially some happy memories.
Beautiful and wonderful! 🌺
I met you as I was walking in. What a thrill!!! You are as warm as you seem❤😊
Thank you 🤗
Omg I want that panel!!! ❤❤❤
I wish I had known about it when the world Barbie thing was going on.
Oh my gosh, that barn quilt you got is adorable!
Woo Hoo, fabulous number of subscribers. Love❤those Wonderfil sheets
Quilt Con in Phoenix Arizona! Yes, perhaps I can make it to that. 😊
Karen, you constantly provide me with so much inspiration. Thank you. ❤. I also enjoy following you around the shows you attend..even if only through TH-cam. If you ever make it to Australia for our quilt fairs,I would be so honoured and pleased to be able just to say "Hi"!
You came up on my feed and first thought was “I bet she bought fabric.” I just watched your video on how much fabric you have a few days ago. I just KNEW you wouldn’t be able to resist bringing some home. I was also delighted to see a photo of Jacquie Gering’s quilt. She continues to amaze me and her straight line quilting techniques were eye opening. Have a quilt ready for quilting and am using a variation of one of them. I haven’t done anything straight line for a while so am really excited about getting the started on it.
she was the keynote speaker
Okay, I love your channel, so am not a troll, lol. But it's"Appa-latch-an", not "Appa-lay-shun". Just a little thing I have about that pronunciation. Anyway....looks like it was a fun time, lots of inspiration! Thanks for the recap. I think I need some of those rinse away design sheets. I'm a newbie to embroidery and that looks like it might help.
I was trying to find a polite way to say this as well! The funny, if not so nice way is, if you say "App uh LAY cha," I'll throw an Apple-atcha!" 😂
Oops, I should have read more comments before posting mine. I said basically the same thing but not nearly as well😊.
QuiltCon was awesome again this year! I didn’t get to say HI to you in person, but I saw you from a distance a couple it times. Thanks for the wrap up and sharing your haul with us! I met Beth from your Quilt crew at my mini swap! 😊
I’m so glad you chose to just enjoy the experience!! What a thrill it would be to attend such an event. Thanks for sharing your finds!!
That last quilt reminds me of a quilter i know. She makes amazing 1/2 hexie quilts that she hand sews and hand quilts.
Great items, and I can tell that you had a really good time!!
Oh, I miss those busy but fun days already! Great to manage to have time to chat with you! xoxo
Thanks very much for sharing!!
Congratulations on 395k! I have subscribed/followed you since the beginning! I love all your videos even the first! I am sorry I don’t have time for Karen’s Quilt Crew. I hope I can when I retire from my full time job. And always, always thank you for sharing! I appreciate you.
🤗
Wish I had seen you there! What a great show!
What great fun 😊. Glad you got to enjoy your self.
"I guess this is how my stash got so big..." was that scripted? I laughed! Glad your QC experience was good!
I don’t know where to start….beautiful fabrics! Interesting new ( or new to me) items……wOW on the quilts! Thank you for sharing! I love your hair!❤
I couldn’t make it to Raleigh b/c of cat medical issues, but I *will* be going to Phoenix! I went to the last one in Phoenix and it was great. 😊
Cork is great to sew with! Love those beautiful colors! When I get bogged down with my quilting projects, I turn to making simple bags. Hope you get as much joy from bag making as I do!
Thank you
I am starting my first zipper bag this weekend 🤞🤞im a bit nervous but excited! Im doing a hemmingway bag.
@@GrandmaD2024That bag is easy and turns out beautifully! Have fun!
Im gonna try! 🎉 thank you 😊
@@GrandmaD2024 A tip for you: there is one corner that has a lot of bulk when you go to turn it out. On my second bag, I realized that after poking it out from the inside, I could make it look more square by pulling it out with a pin from the outside! Have a great weekend and enjoy your bag, which will be beautiful.
Thanks for sharing, I have to say I love your ufo travel fabric they are so nice , my favorite colors too!
Quilt Con is on my bucket list too!
Love, love, love your mini barn quilt. You lucked out for sure! She’s so talented!
Thanks for taking me along on your quilting adventure! I soooo want to do Quilt Con next year!
It was so fun to meet up with you again, Karen! I’m unable to join you on your upcoming cruise, as our family is going on vacation all together during that time. I also came home with quite a lot of quilting goodies, along with so much inspiration from all the quilts. I’m already looking forward to next year’s Quiltcon!
I have already booked my room…so we need to have dinner together
Those quilts at the end of the video are awe inspiring!
Glad you like them!
Totally love the barn quilt mini quilt you received in the swap!
I wish i could've gone. Im sure it was an amazing time!
What a find on the camera fabric. Perfect!
Thank you for sharing your haul :) I was hoping to get there this year but couldn’t due to health issues. I’m making a plan to go to Phoenix as it’s semi-driveable if I find someone to go along. Good for you taking a year to do as you wanted vs trying to record everything! I’m happy to hear you had such a great time!
I love the fat quarters printed on one panel. I have purchased that way twice and will again after a few projects are completed.
I made some Christmas decorations using adhesive wash away. Great fun. I bought mine from my local quilt shop who had a big roll,of it. She has had it tucked away in the back of my store room for so long she could not remember when or from whom she bought in. She did however remember she had when I was describing what I wanted.
Thanks so much for featuring my quilt!❤😊❤
It was a beauty
I love By Annie patterns.
It's easy to get sucked into bag making. I purchased a LOT of vinyl and notions and am not super excited to keep making bags. So I'll finish the few I have planned, sell off my stash, and go back to quilting, my first love. 😊 And I'm ok with having tried something new and not wanting to take it much further.
smart
Great haul! I hope you take us on your quiktmaking journey when you use your 8” clammy template. I have one but am intimidated to use it. 🥴
I'm impressed by your restraint!
Karen, WOW thank you for sharing !! Hugs & luv
Thank you for showing us some interesting items. I was planning on attending but ended up missing this year.
Next time!
Thank you for this video. You just might have made me want to to go Phoenix!! And I really loved your improv hexagon. Do you have a tutorial on that quilt? I enjoy improv piecing (very relaxing and like a palate cleanser between projects) and think that would be a really fun way to use scraps.
Thank you so many ideas
Thank you so much! I enjoyed this video very much! ❤❤❤
Looks like a great time was had by all ❤
Congrats on your subscription total.😊
So excited to hear that quiltcon will be in Phoenix next year. I live here! Hoping I can make it for at least one day. I love the idea of the Rinse Away sheets. I'd like to try them.
I like the travel fabric that you got because the last time I went to quilt expo in Wisconsin I did the same thing. I got things that would help me finish projects I already had. If you want to come it's early in September! ♥️
Great haul . I’m going to quilt festival in Houston this fall
love your quilt con videos! thanks for sharing
Congrats on 395000
How do you get everything home? Lol did u just check a giant bag?
That suitcase fabric is so cute! Also the fat quarters all in panel form is genius!!
Missouri Star has 5" rulers
I live in the Appalachian mountains and it's pronounced with a "ch" sound similar to a sneeze- ah-cha not the " sh" sound which many are trying to use these days. As if you were telling someone " I'm going to throw an apple at cha" ( that's hillbilly for you)😅.😊
WOW I want to go next year!! And I absolutely LOVE Arizona!!!
We love to go to canada, yes our passports came the other day. We love having here in the states too!! No snow here in Florida, no wonder they come down!!
Congratulations
❤
2026! Saving Starts Now!
If needs be, you can be my plus one
Hi from lexington Ma
Rulers!!! I love them.. but how to store? Help!
I want to make the barn quilt
I love your shirt! Is it quilting cotton?
Is Quiltcon ever in Toronto? Nice haul. I’m so jelly you met up with Becca!!
It’s never been outside the USA
As I clicked on the video I was saying oh oh lol.Glad you had fun! 😀💖 Q: what would it mean to you to have 400000 subscribers?
Since I work on my own a lot, it would be reassurance I am still on the right course
I'm a beekeeper too! I need your son's info so I can buy some of his honey and put it on my honey display!
hi just sells his at the end of the road
😅🤣😂 More fabric! 🙄 Irresistible! 😃
😀
planning to go in 2025
Other than travel, lodging and food how much does it cost to go to Quiltcon? I have a nephew in Phoenix I can stay with and his mom and I are up to another road trip next year. Essentially what I’m asking is, are there tickets you have to buy to get in to see all the beautiful quilts and supplies to make a quilt?
Yes…one day and four day passes
Can you give info on how to get that Rinse Away sticky fabric, please!
It’s by wonderfil. Check out their website
You show stickers but I think it was cut at the montage 😢
Love that barn!!! Do you have source for that pattern?
Sorry, not made by me
Guilty pleasures….a chocolate substitute
U know ur gettin old if u know what a boom box is!!
