FALL QUILT MARKET… BY THE NUMBERS

 

There were 454 exhibitors in a total of 1,019 booths at this year’s Houston Quilt Market, including 39 that were completely new to the show. See who among them were awarded Best Booth honors.

 

 

 

 

 

A total of 2,336 people registered to attend fall Quilt Market. And of those, 1,444 people also signed up for seminars, classes, and events. 1,093 attended the popular Schoolhouse Series and 1,099 attendees were at this fall’s Sample Spree.

 

 

 

 

 

We added several new features at this year’s Houston show, including Demo Alley, the Room to Sew area, and the Newcomer’s Coffee and Wine Down! events, all of which will be returning to future Markets.

 

The 2018 fall Quilt Market in Houston will take place November 3-5 (note later dates!). We hope to see you before then for spring Quilt Market in Portland, Oregon, May 18-20, 2018!
