The International Quilt Market<\/b> is the world\u2019s only wholesale trade show for the $1.6 billion quilting industry. We have two Quilt Markets a year: a spring edition in a rotating city, and a fall edition in\u2028 Houston, Texas.<\/p>\n

Market also offers Business Seminars and events to help retailers meet their business goals. Teachers, industry leaders, media, and designers also attend.<\/p>\n

A show so large requires pre-planning for a retailer to successfully cover the entire show floor and visit all of the exhibitors they want to see. Since every exhibitor is carefully screened for quality and relation to the quilt industry before being accepted into Quilt Market, and because exhibiting companies vie with each other to make creative and attractive booths, Quilt Market may require more shopping time for the retailer than many other trade shows.<\/p>\n

How many?<\/b> Market usually attracts more than 500 exhibitor companies who take out more than 1,000 booths. We also have a \u201cSneak Peek\u201d section near the front of the show where exhibitors can showcase their newest products.<\/p>\n

Retailers usually have a total of just over 23 hours to shop the show\u2014so there\u2019s no time to waste! Start by \u201cwalking\u201d the show to get a feel for what\u2019s being offered, what\u2019s new, and what\u2019s most useful for your business. We recommend you spend no more than two hours on this \u201cwalk through.\u201d Then\u2026start buying!<\/p>\n
