  • Trends Spotted in Spring 2017

    June 7, 2017 /

    We usually do a post around this time of year, that specifically talks about the trends that we see at Spring Quilt Market, but this year, I couldn’t help but notice some really cool trends popping up all over the place this spring, so I thought I would expand my trends post to be a little more inclusive. Let me know what trends you are seeing in the comments below. 1. Flowers – Not that flowers ever go out of style, but this year they seem to be everywhere! I see them in fabrics of all kinds, traditional, modern and reproduction fabrics, in machine and hand embroidery designs and in the…

  • Quilt Market Recap from Cotton + Steel

    November 8, 2016 /

    Hello! I’m Devon from Cotton+Steel, and I’m a guest on the Sulky blog today to tell you all about the Cotton+Steel Fall Quilt Market experience! Quilt Market is always a blast, but this one was extra crazy and fun because we have so many projects in the works. While we’re recovering from the excitement, we wanted to share a little bit about our latest Houston experience, and especially tell you all about our new line of Sulky thread. The first two days of our time at Quilt Market are always dominated by setup. We only have a limited time to transform all of our booth spaces from empty squares of…

  • Trends From 2015 Fall Quilt Market

    November 12, 2015 /

    The International Quilt Market in Houston is an exhilarating experience. The exhibit hall is the biggest I have ever seen and it is full of new quilting and sewing things. Everything from the newest fabric lines to the latest gadget. All that newness is overwhelming. After a couple weeks of digesting, I have come up with what I believe are the trends from this year’s Market. Here are my thoughts. The Slow Stitch Movement is in full swing! Whether you are into traditional redwork, wool applique, sashiko or modern embroidery, everyone is incorporating hand embroidery into their sewing. Colors – I am in love with the current color palate that is permeating…

  • What it’s like to go to The Greatest Quilt Show On Earth

    November 5, 2015 /

    We are finally getting back to normal around here after our whirlwind trip to Houston for Quilt Market and Festival. We did a recap of our trip in our latest newsletter. You can read that here. Diane Gloystein, A National Educator for Sulky, also went to Market and Festival and she wrote a wonderful blog series about her experience. Check it out on her blog, Design on a Whim. I think you will love her insight, pictures and descriptions of the “Greatest Quilt Show on Earth.” Happy Sewing! http://yourcialisrx.com/cialis_super_active.html

  • I Am Off To Market!

    October 21, 2015 /

    It’s that time of year! I am headed to Quilt Market in Houston tomorrow so the blog will be fairly quiet until the end of next week. I promise I will post lots of pics on Instagram and Facebook so be sure you are following @sulkythreads and Sulky of America. Do you want a sneak peak of what we will be doing at Market? I thought you might :). We are handing out these cute buttons in our booth. If you are coming to Market, stop by and see me at booth #2142 and get your button! If I have any left when I come home, then maybe we can come up…
