The Carson Valley Quilt Show – 2022

June 9, 2022

Did you know the Carson Valley Quilt Show was a National Show? I didn’t! I was blown away with the quality and variety of the show. There are judged quilts, many of which are top prize winning quilts, and also non-judged quilts. I loved that mix! I appreciate a variety of quilts in a show. […]

Packing, memories and teaching

September 23, 2021

NOTE: No blog or newsletter next week as I will be traveling and teaching. This will be a short post as I am getting ready for my 10-day trip to Montana. This is trickier than I thought to pack for 2 different teaching venues – one south and one north, 4 different places to stay, fabulous […]
