Coburg Quilt Show
One of my blog readers let me know her and a friend (both named Lori- all spelled differently though) were going to be vending in Coburg at the quilt show. Although it is a fairly long drive it was a beautiful day and I thought I might as well go. I wasn't disappointed.
Here is one section of Laurie's "booth". Later in the week I'll show you what I purchased. I could have bought a lot more;)
The quilts were great! I was drawn to some that had a lot of tiny pieces!!
Awesome in every way.
I'm a sucker for a heartfelt story too!!

Can't imagine sewing all those little pieces together, so beautiful. Love an outdoor quilt show, nothing like the sunshine to bring out the colors of the quilts.
Fantastic scrappy quilts! Love them. And what a sweet story about the Halloween kitty quilt. It is a fun piece.
Can't wait to see what came home with you!
Thanks for the quilt show...I, too amd drawn to quilts with tiny pieces. And the story on the Buggy Barn cat quilt is so touching...wow!
In stitches,
Teresa :o)
I love those quilts - how many different pieces of fabric in those - no I'm not asking you to count ....awesome though as I am sure I throw pieces that small and I could have been making a quilt!
Wow!! That was SEW worth the drive!! INcredible quilts and the cat quilt and story...got tears!! Thanks for sharing...now I have to go blow my nose...

Oregon is such a wonderful quilty place! Great shops and quilt shows! I hope you bought that one in the front looks like a 4 patch?? Don't wait too long I lose my internet here in a couple of days!
That looks like it was a great quilt show! Quilt shows are so wonderful and we have a few coming up this month and next. I'm excited about them. What a fun day you must have had!
Love the quilts and like you I'm a sucker for a wonderful story. Her quilt was fantastic. Hugs
What beautiful quilts and so much piecing. I do like to piece and hopefully when I feel better, I can do more quilting on the machine. Love that kitty quilt, so fun. I used to save clothing for quilting and did make some with shirts, now i wish I had kept all the kids clothes and saved them for now.

My mouth was watering just looking at that table full of old quilts! If only I had a magic wallet.
Those tiny triangles? , were wonderful! What a quilt! Would I ever be crazy enough to do one like that, never! But I love it.
Great quilt story.
Always great fun to see a quilt show, but it's always equally frustrating not to have been there. Thanks for sharing so many goodies. I spy a pretty pink and green T-block quilt that I would have headed to.
All those little pieces--so pretty all together.
I love that second hst/pinwheel quilt - wow - what a lot of pieces! Laurie's booth looks like a marvelous spot for inspiration - you did take some pictures there too?? :0)
Hi Lori
awesome quilts - love those tiny pieces.
What a great halloween quilt and a sweet story.
Great quilts!! In particular the one with little pinwheels!!! What a great scrap quilt - may have to go on my GDSL!!! Glad you had fun. Can't wait to see your find!!
Blessings
Great quilts, I do like seeing quilts with lots of piecing/applique so these ones were great to show today. Cats, you just can't go wrong there! Can't wait to see what you bought, and hopefully you have ore pics of her booth?
Looks like a fun show - and the brilliant blue sky makes those quilts pop! Looking forward to seeing what you bought.
Thanks for sharing!
Awesome quilts....heartwarming tribute. Thanks for sharing.
Oh my a wonderful show, love the cat quilt and the story to go with it.
Looks like it was an awesome day for a wonderful quilt show! I love scrappy quilts! I spent the morning piecing on my Gone to Texas quilt. It's a beautiful day her in Upper MIchigan. Tomorrow we leave for Illinois,
Wow, the description of the Halloween quilt really gets me.
The older quilts in the booth are intriguing. I just wonder what you chose?!
Hi, really great quilts. I love scrappy quilts. Looking forward to see your purchases.

I LOVE quilts with tiny pieces too! So fascinatingly beautiful and fun to look at.. Thanks for sharing!
I want to jump into the first picture and unfold each quilt and top for a look what is inside.....
Be still my heart! Such lovely, scrappy quilts with little pieces. Also loved the cat quilt and story. It was a charmer.

Kathie
Wow, all those small pieces. And so wonderfully colourful!! The cat quilt is a lot of fun!! I like the way you keep us in suspence as to what you came home with.
It was so great to meet you.I never saw you take pictures of the booth.Recieved a letter yesterday from a lady wanting a quilt top she looked at.Lorrie and I already decided we are doing it again next year.Hope you will come out again.
Laurie
Fantastic quilts. Love those tiny pieces.
The Halloween cat story was very sweet. And the cute is adorable.
Thanks for sharing.
Thanks, Lori!
Oh, I am such a sucker for large quilts with very small pieces. I was also a sucker for saving/hoarding all possible scraps. If I could put a 1/4" seam on all sides, it got saved. At quilt classes Iʻd unashamedly dumpster-dive ~~ pick thru everyoneʻs paper bag taped to the table. Always good for laugh too. Thanks again for the Coburg treasures. Way to go, Oregon!
