Road Trip


I made mention that I'd be taking a road trip to North Seattle. Here's a taste!

After I picked up Michelle in Portland our first stop was Carriage Country Quilts in Des Moines, WA. Very cute shop, friendly help. 
Saturday we picked up Linda and headed to Laurie's in Marysville.
We about passed out when we saw Laurie's Mrs Billings quilt! What a masterpiece!! 

And we enjoyed seeing a few of her antiques too! Look for more in a blog post on Wednesday.

  1. I like the antique design.....probably because I am drawn to circular type designs. It would make a good challenge starter for a group of more experienced piecers.

  2. That's quite the Day trip! Glad you could get away. I saw a few snippets of the show on IG. I'll be back Wednesday for MORE!

  4. Must have been a lovely trip!
    I like a lot the quilt on the left side of the first picture (seems to be used as a curtain) !
    Love the idea of the different sort of blocks row-wise and as much as I can see it is very scrappy!
    Would love to see it entirely.
    Best wishes!

    It was such a fun day with you all. Looking forward to the up coming exchange.
    Nice pictures from your trip. Could have used one more day, to get to Folk Tales in Lynden.
    So another trip up???
