Rainy Day Quilters' Show




Yesterday I walked down the hill (in high 20's - low 30's temps...) to see the Annual RDQ Show. I was expecting a couple of quilts hanging up. The show was amazing! All different categories from lap quilts to wall hangings to beginners to bed quilts with hand quilting and machine quilting were represented. It really made me want to drag out my ol' bag of scraps and see what I could do...

Years ago I made a log cabin quilt which took forever to cut out since it had over 1,000 "logs" in it. Then some college friends and I made quilts for our children. I've also made some for wedding and baby gifts - but none for many years. Maybe this is the year to begin again! It certainly was inspiring, that's for sure.

The photo with the stars is a "Last Frontier" quilt - I had to take that one. The top left was one of my favorites, and the one on the right is just a room shot.

I continue to be amazed by the incredible talent of these Ketchikan-ers!
