💙TILDA TRUNK SHOW💙

The wait is over! The first day of our Tilda Something Blue Trunk Show is Friday, June 5, and the doors will open at 10:00am.

🗓 Show Hours:
Friday, June 5 | 10am–4pm
Saturday, June 6 | 10am–4pm
Sunday, June 7 | 1pm–5pm

We'll continue the show the following weekend, June 12–14, while supplies last.

To help you make the most of your visit, we encourage you to do a little "homework" before the show!

📖 Browse the Tilda Catalog:

🧵 Explore the Free Tilda Patterns:
https://www.tildasworld.com/free-patterns/

Take a look through the projects and start making a wish list:
✔ Which projects catch your eye?
✔ Which fabrics are your favorites?
✔ How much yardage will your project require?

The more prepared you are, the easier it will be to shop and the more likely you'll leave with exactly what you need to get started.

We're also trying to prepare as many kits as possible ahead of time. If there is a specific Tilda project you'd like to make, please send us a message and let us know! While we can't guarantee every request, we'd love to know what you're hoping to sew so we can plan accordingly.

We'll have trunk show samples, fabric, kits, inspiration, and plenty of Tilda goodness waiting for you.

We will see you this weekend? Let us know below! 💙
