The time is here! It's Quilt Week in the Quilting Capitol of the world, Paducah Kentucky! It was a time of firsts for us at Quilted Joy since for the first time EVER we had our first booth at the Show and we also co-ordinated TWO Quilt Fairy Magic busses for 100 of our fellow quilt lovers!

A Quilted Joy First

Quilted Joy's Booth at the Paducah Quilt Show

Our cozy booth was a treasure trove of eye candy, overflowing with goodies like Glide thread in a rainbow of color, along with enticing fabric bundles and exclusive Quilted Joy kits. Our Quilt Fairies worked their magic, weaving a spell to make everything simply breathtaking. And if you take a moment to peer closely, you might just spy some whimsical critters peeking out from among the fabrics, adding an extra touch of charm to our little corner of the quilt world.

    

We absolutely adored connecting with each and every one of you who stopped by our booth. Your enthusiasm and passion for quilting filled our hearts with joy, and we cherished every moment spent sharing our love for this craft with you.

And speaking of shared passions, it's clear as day that Glide thread holds a special place in the hearts of quilters, sewists, and embroiderers alike. Universally beloved for its unrivaled quality and versatility, Glide thread is a staple in the toolkit of creative souls everywhere!

Quilt Fairy Magic Bus

For the very first time, we embarked on a truly enchanting journey by organizing not one, but TWO Quilt Fairy Magic buses. With 100 of our dear quilt-loving friends aboard, we set off for a day filled with pure joy at the show. Watch the video below to see how much fun we had!
