Mary Beth Posted February 25, 2010 Report Share Posted February 25, 2010 Here are a few links to get you thinking about MQS....like we are not already!!! First, a map of the vendor mall....this is one of my favorite things to do. Print it off, "x" off all the vendors you know you won't go to...Highlight all the vendors you know you want to visit....Then when you walk through the doors for the "Shopping Frenzy" you will know exactly where you want to go first...or if you are like me...you will throw your map away and go crazy!!! https://custom.cvent.com/CB5602DB1F3E42AB9FE2CA986CA56EE3/files/8bd118a37c0344a79d8967e04555f994.pdf Next....and this one is a must if you are a Superior Thread fan...the Inventory List! This will allow you to highlight the threads that you need/want....and you can enter a count of the threads you already have...so you don't buy more of what you already have.... http://www.superiorthreads.com/media/docs/inventoryList.pdf With this inventory list, I just print off the pages of the thread that I use, some of them I don't use at all so why waste the ink and paper...go green!! Get ready girls and boys....cause these next few months will go fast and MQS will be here before you know it...Yippee... I can't wait to see everyone again!!!

quiltingnanny Posted February 28, 2010 Report Share Posted February 28, 2010 What's on your list this year ? I've been trying to narrow down what I wanted, but it's SO hard ! Glenda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramona-quilter Posted February 28, 2010 Report Share Posted February 28, 2010 Hey Mary Beth, thank you for the vendor mall map. I am so easily distracted by the eye candy there that I get lost. Hope this will help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LinneaMarie Posted February 28, 2010 Report Share Posted February 28, 2010 Yes, I'm with Linda, thanks for the map! Linda since we both get distracted, maybe we should go together!!! Oh what fun!:P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mary Beth Posted February 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2010 I print out this map every year...and then can't find it when it is time to shop....I end up running all different directions and not knowing where to go or when to turn around...I can't find anything....I am in a panic....then I see the Superior booth and throw my hands up and say..."what's the use" we can't squeeze another butt into that booth What is on my list for this year??? 1. Edgerider wheels 2. APQS Parts (you know, the ones that could go out, but we pray won't because we don't have the part and don't want to pay shipping charges). 3. Thread....not that I need it, I just love looking at it So far that's all. I don't really have much I need. I have almost all of the CL templates. I have decided that since there are so many variations of sizes of motifs with the CL templates, I don't need to buy stencils. Last year there were no pantos - and I have pretty much stopped using them any way, so no pantos. Also, I have not scheduled any classes this time either What is wrong with me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PattyJo Posted February 28, 2010 Report Share Posted February 28, 2010 Thanks MB for the map - And yes, it does get the mind whirling as to all I want to see and do and get and, and, and............... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheri Butler Posted March 1, 2010 Report Share Posted March 1, 2010 Gonna be easy for me this year. CL templates, maybe some stencils..and possibly a little thread. I've been stocking up on the thread, so unless there's something new, it wont be much. Possibly any other "trinkets' that catch my eye. Other than that, i'm just going to meander myself thru the mall daily and dream. LOL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmcclannan Posted March 1, 2010 Report Share Posted March 1, 2010 Why is it scheduled a week before school is out??? I'm bummed! Oh, well, maybe next year, (sigh).:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mary Beth Posted March 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2010 I have always wondered that too. I have other friends that are teachers that would love to come to MQS. It would be nice to move it to the first week in June. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmcclannan Posted March 1, 2010 Report Share Posted March 1, 2010 Why don't you work on that, Mary Beth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mary Beth Posted March 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2010 Right....like "they" even know who I am and would have anything "they" would listen to :D:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lisalnewman Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 Thanks Mary Beth That is great information!! Like you I try to be organized but unfortunately due to circumstances beyond my control there is a conspiracy to keep my life (and studio) a disaster!! What is a girl to do???

Mary Beth Posted March 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2010 Well, I have been planning my shopping strategies...And I have found something very disturbing....I don't see a stencil vendor at MQS. Golden Threads will be there and they do have stencils...but usually there are others. I love stencils. I only get to shop one day...I think...I want stencils.....
