About ByAnnie Trunk Shows
Turn Inspiration Into Sales
There’s something powerful about seeing a finished project in person.
A ByAnnie Trunk Show brings that experience right into your shop, giving customers the chance to see projects up close, imagine creating their own, and discover patterns and products used to create them.

What is a ByAnnie Trunk Show?
A ByAnnie Trunk Show is a collection of professionally sewn ByAnnie models that you can borrow and display in your shop or at your next event.
Choose models that fit your customers, classes, or event, and we'll ship them to you. Display the finished projects to showcase patterns and products while giving customers a chance to see the details up close.
It's an easy way to bring ByAnnie inspiration right into your shop.

Why Host a ByAnnie Trunk Show?
Finished projects can do more than inspire. They can engage your customers, showcase your products, help increase sales and more!
Showcase Patterns
Let customers see the finished project instead of imagining it from a photo.
Inspire New Projects
Give sewists ideas for what they could make next.
Support Your Classes
Provide finished samples that help students visualize the project they're about to make.
Create an Eye-Catching Display
Add interest to your shop, quilt show, retreat, shop hop, or other event.
Highlight Products
Show customers the fabrics, Soft & Stable, hardware, zippers, and other supplies used to make each project.
Generate Sales
Increase pattern and supply sales by showing customers a finished project they love and a clear path to making one of their own.
