QuiltCon 2015 - so soon!

Quiltcon 2013, Charlotte, Emily, & Emily

I can't believe it - Quiltcon is just 7 weeks away!

I'm sitting here trying to compile a list of all the things I need to do to prepare for the trip.

Here's my list so far:

  • Order new Moo mini cards. (get a discount by following this link!) (done!)
  • Finish swap projects for my four roomies.
  • Gather some cool USA / Chicago / Ohio specific goodies for Shruti - tips? What is super USA that she should experience? 
  • Make a new bag? Maybe I'll use the Aeroplane bag I made for Sara's quilt market booth? Maybe my weekender?
  • Order buttons - I should do this right? that would be way cool. Who makes good / cheap 1" pin-back buttons? (done!)
  • Gather supplies for my workshops -- when do supply lists get sent out? (done!)
  • Get an eye exam and order new glasses from ZenniOptical.
Are you going to QuiltCon? What is left on your to-do list??

*None of these sites are sponsoring this post-- but hey if they'd like to... lol. Just kidding, I do love Moo and Zenni though. :)
