In case you missed the news, True Up now has a Fabric Design Forum to support the book and hopefully be a community hub for aspiring and working fabric designers worldwide.

I’m in Houston at the Fall 2011 International Quilt Market! Right now I’m about to go to Schoolhouse to see some of my favorite designers and companies present their new goods.
