We’re here! We made it to Chicago last night and are all set up for AIBI’s Chicago’s Pop-up Garment District today and tomorrow.
I’m looking forward to meeting you, visiting with the other exhibitors, and, of course, looking through fabric swatches! There are some great resources for fabrics, trims, and manufacturing here. It is worth a trip. We’ll be here today, May 10 from 10:00am – 5:00pm and tomorrow (Saturday), May 11 from 9:00am – 4:00pm.
