Glory Bee!

I presented a trunk show to the Northwest Quilters on Monday morning. It's always a fun time to be with quilters!!

Next month I'll be at Village Quilters in San Diego. I hope if you are close you'll check it out!

I took a quick photo of my table but it is hard to take a photo of the presentation when you are presenting! It was a very engaged group. 

I was thinking I was moving right along on this Liberty Eagle project. I even shared it  at the trunk show. I went home and measured it to get borders on then looked at the book......

I guess I forgot the sashing!! lol I felt it needed it so I took it apart and have the sashing cut now ready to start sewing again.

The sickness bug has hit our household- I do hope we are on the mend. I got a cold , then got another one! (One from Guatemala, one from Oregon) So, it has been about a month for me, then hubby got the flu! I stayed far far away!! He is on the mend. We rarely get sick, especially with the flu. I'm ready for health and spring!! 

I hope you all are doing well.

Next Monday I will be presenting 

 Glory Bee! Patriotic Quilts from my Collection

I have loved patriotic quilts and patriotic colorways since I took my first quilt class! I love history as well and these two loves go hand in hand. 

I will be at Northwest Quilters, Inc  Monday, March 9, 2026, at 9:30 am, at Immanuel Lutheran Church, 7810 SE 15th Ave, Portland, Oregon.

Most guilds have a small charge for guests but if you will be close by please stop in and be sure to say HI!

Here is a Youtube video I did 4 years ago before having an official trunk show for guilds. 

I am sure hoping this laryngitis I have is gone before Monday! We have a quick little getaway planned for the next few days and I am going to try and preserve my voice!! 

PS- The annual Humble quilt swap will be announced soon! 

Sewing Expo

Years ago I used to meet my SIL in WA state and we would attend the Sewing and Stitchery Expo. This year we were able to go! 

For those of you who have attended my trunk shows this is the SIL that I took my first class with in Sisters with Jean Wells!

 

Not one thing was purchased but we saw a lot of quilts with sheep!

We made it to a couple of antique stores and saw a few overpriced beautiful quilts. 

I thought the quilting on this was unique. (see next photo)

Oh that sashing fabric! 

The zig zag border is always appealing to me.

Loved the homespun backing of the pink and brown.

I thought Lincoln and Mary were so cute!!

We got to my great niece's soccer game right as it was over. The sky was so pretty but it was cold!!

I had a bit of a set back with my cold- so annoying!!

Happy March!

I'd Love to Visit Your Quilt Guild: Glory Be!

 As the USA celebrates 250th year of the signing of the Declaration of Independence I'm excited to share this trunk show in a couple of weeks!

Glory Bee! Patriotic Quilts from my Collection

I have loved patriotic quilts and patriotic colorways since I took my first quilt class! I love history as well and these two loves go hand in hand.  I hope my lecture will inspire you to start your own collection of  Americana quilts!

The large one is in the Smithsonian, so I won't be bringing that one! lol 

I do hope to make a little progress on my 250 year eagle quilt and bring it for inspiration. 

I'd love to visit your guild with a trunk show, workshop, in person or online!
