The 2020 Nashville Market, the largest show in the needlework world, will be held March 6 to 8 in Nashville, TN. This is the show that most designers target for their best designs of the year. Needlework shop owners attend, purchase the the latest charts, and bring them home to stock their stores, to offer at Nashville Market events, and to fill pre-orders. At the link below, you will see many of the latest designs. If you find some you like, contact Fiber Talk sponsors or your local needlework store and pre-order. When your favorite shop owner returns from the Nashville Market, you’ll be able to pick up the latest charts and start stitching.
