QuiltCon 2016-Part 1

February 25, 2016

  Lucky me-I got to go to QuiltCon, the Modern Quilt show in Pasadena this year! This was my first visit to a major Modern quilt show. There were lots of strollers and babies and it was delightful to see such a young crowd get so excited about quilting. I loved the venue too-open and very […]

PIQF 2014-the rest of the story

November 13, 2014

I’ll have one more post about PIQF so come back-it will be a surprise. But today’s post includes stunning traditional, portraiture, landscape and wearables. I have many photos that did not make it as my battery ran low and they were too fuzzy to print. Enjoy! Is this not stunning? Ann Marie wrote that she […]
