Special Sapphire Exhibit

I'll let the quilts speak for themselves. 
Every time I walked by the quilts hanging high, I couldn't help but snap a photo!! 












My Brick Wall of Wabash County quilt directly above me in the middle,
 designed by Tara at Quilters Ridge. 


My 25 patch Road to Paducah quilt.


My Road to California quilt. (creative names, huh?)

Most of the others are vintage or antique blue and white. 
Enjoy!













I hope you are inspired!

Let's have an amazing week!

Sapphire Exhibit Quilts

I'm pretty sure by now you've heard me tell you I had 3 blue and white quilts accepted for the special Sapphire Exhibit with Quilts, Inc.
Here they are. 

Brick Wall of Wabash County, designed by Tara Lynn Baisden. Completed March 2018

Road to California (Jacobs Ladder) Made in CA with friends. 2008


I love the backing!
Road to Paducah, also made with a friend. 2004
Love the quilting on this one. It is nice and thin so feels vintage!

Quilts are folded properly with appropriate sleeve, label and paperwork and are winging their way to Houston!! I think Porter was saying a little blessing over them! LOL

I told my facebook group that I am combining blogs so my Get to Goal, which I started 11 years ago, will now be combined with my Humble Quilts blog. If you aren't interested, then you are done:) I'll be posting my activity stuff at the bottom.

Do you use trekking poles? I bought a pair some time ago, but couldn't figure out how to use them while having a dog on a leash, so I returned them.
Then we went hiking in Alaska and our guide gave me one on the way down (a glacier and a rock bed) and boy, just one made a huge difference. I was sold on trekking poles after that!



I have a pair of women's Leki that I love, but saw these at Costco and for carbon fiber got a good deal. I look at it as an investment in my knees! So, now I'll always have a pair handy for me or Cory.

I hope you are having a terrific week. I went into Portland yesterday and met up with my kids for a combo Mother's Day/Birthday simple lunch celebration at an Irish pub!
