The booth tour of the Cloud 9 Quilt Market booth released as a look book on ISSUU. Oh, man. I loved everything in this booth – and was totally surprised by them as a brand at Quilt Market! Their prints had been typically kind of “cutesy” to me, so I was a bit shocked when I saw a couple of my favorite artists with lines being released. Totally pleased, and will be waiting for the lines to hit shops.
Hope you’re inspired for the week ahead!
