NOTE: I am not sure whether I will have a blog post or newsletter next week. I will play it by ear. Sign up for my newsletter here; it includes my blog post PLUS a lot of other goodies.

The Pioneer Quilters Guild show is one of my favorite local shows; there is always a wide variety of talent, a fabulous boutique, good food and good vendors. And, they had a chocolate vendor this year! Makes me wonder why other guild shows don’t have a chocolate vendor. I mean…quilters…chocolate; what a good match!

I noticed how much more elevated the quilting was overall over last year even. It just gets better and better. This is not a judged show, so there are no ribbons. I am not presenting these in any particular order. If I had unlimited space I would have close ups of many of these quilts. There is just so much beauty in the detail. Here we go:
