NW Quilt Expo

 Many of you may not know but Oregon is one of a handful of states that still have an indoor mask mandate. Our governor has tried to mandate outdoor masking but that has failed miserably.

 Anyway, it was my FIRST quilt show since last October when I went to the scaled down version of the Aurora historical Quilt Show.  I was so excited! 

Here's my favorites from the show.

The story captured my heart on this quilt. Read below. 



Sorry I cut this off!

The others are from the collection of the Latimer Quilt and Textile Center in Tillamook Oregon. 





BOOM! Nothing like a great fabric that's in your face!! 






Such a great print to use on that star!

That print is incredible!



I hope this got you inspired this Monday morning! I know I am!

  2. Lori maravillosa exposición. Gracias por compartir.
    En España sigue siendo obligatorio utilizar la mascarilla en lugares cerrados, en espacios abiertos si hay distancia entre personas se pude ir sin mascara, somos muchos quizás la mayoría que seguimos llevándola siempre.

  9. Yes! I love the pink one and such a sweet story! I need to go to the Lattimer Center again - it's been a long time. Maybe I'll get DH to drive us there for a day trip.

  10. Fabulous quilts! Thanks for posting these. I love that story too. My father lost 2 siblings in the early 20's to the same disease.

  12. I look forward every year to your photos of the Aurora show. That’s a lot of triangles for a ten-year-old to make! We still have an indoor mask mandate here in North Carolina, and I’m glad of it, since only 49% of the population is vaccinated. Dot
