GENERAL ASSEMBLY HALL
Retailers, wholesalers, and business owners—you won’t want to miss this! Join Mark Hyland, CEO of Premier Needle Arts as he shares details and results from the 2022 Quilter’s Survey, sponsored by Premier Needle Arts. This survey is sent to more than 1 million quilters annually, during the first quarter of each year and has been conducted for the past 12 years. Information will include information and data about the Quilting Industry as well as important consumer demographic information about your customers: Who they are, what they’re buying (and not buying!), spending habits, trends, and more to help you better approach your own business, increase sales, and meet the needs of both current and potential customers.
Then, we’ll have a State of the Industry panel discussion with Mark Hyland, Heidi Kaisand of American Quilt Retailer magazine and a shopowner, and Brittany Gray of E.E. Schenck/Maywood Studio discussing their specific areas of the industry, how the pandemic has affected them, and what they see ahead for the future. Don’t miss out on this important event!
