We recently vended at the Houston International Quilt Festival, November 3rd through 7th. Friend and designer Diane Carter came up with an idea to have a party on Friday night, the 5th. She made up 200 adorable "Angel-Ina" pins that we handed out to party-goers along with a free pattern on how to make her. We also handed out LOTS of chocolate.
The participants were told to wear their pins proudly for the next two days and we would wander around the festival handing out $25 gift certificates to the first eight people we found wearing them. Here are pictures of the winners. Congratulations to them all -- and look for our party in Cincinnati!!
