Studio 180 Designs

 When we first arrived at
International Quilt Market
in Houston
and began setting up our booth
we met our next door neighbors
Deb and Jeff Tucker of
What a great company to be placed next to!
When they learned this was our first year
as Vendors at IQF
they gave us a lot of tips
 and helpful hints
to navigate our way through
such a large convention.
Doubly Charmed
 A neatly organized 
and well designed booth space.
*I took a lot of notes!
 Deb has a background in Education and Architecture
and started her company when she created a series of tools
that make the Hunter's Star quilt
easier and with better accuracy.
I stood in admiration as I watched her demo 
for hours on end each day
during the 2 weeks 
of both Quilt Market and Quilt Festival.
A very professional
and hard working lady!
Last year alone Deb presented at 20 Conventions.
 Have you seen or used the rulers 
that Deb has designed?
I was hoping the 
Tucker Trimmer
offered a magical solution for weight loss :)
 I loved their
Flying Swallows
by Sager Creek Quilts
where the block looks 
like detailed English Paper Piecing
but instead 
is made with a much easier technique
of strip piecing and specialty ruler.
For more information you can visit
Studio 180 Designs
at their web site
Thanks Deb and Jeff for helping us newbies.
We hope we have the opportunity
to be neighbors next year.
