Back from our San Diego Quilt Show

Pin It

I can't begin to express the feeling
I get 
when I see one of my designs 
hanging at a quilt show.
At this show there was a "Meet Me in Paris" 
out of batiks.
We sold this lady a kit
last year and she got it all done.
I thought it turned out beautiful.
I usually design the kits with floral fabrics
and when asked by a customer for 
a custom design out of batiks
I had my concerns on how it would
turn out.
My concerns are put to rest.
These gals are part of the San Diego Olde Town
Quilt Group
that promotes the arts of
yesterday.
Rug Hooking, Quilting etc.
This is a quilt that is known
as the oldest quilt in California.
They were all dressed in period clothing.
And here are some of the quilts that were in the show.

I am now in St George...
working on my new pattern.
Kenny Roy went on home...
to take care of business...
while I love on these grand babies
of mine for awhile.
'til later....
Hugs,

Headed to the 'doc' for a biopsy tomorrow. UGH!

I am not looking forward to tomorrow. The dreaded scheduled .....  biopsy.

But on a lighter note....in my blog reading I came across this great post! If any of you have a hard time organizing your stash....check our what this great blogger has to say. HERE!
I don't like to post without  pictures so here's today's pick.
 I needed a bright and happy picture!
This was our booth in Yuma a few years ago. The quilt on the left is my Whimsy Lane Pattern. You can order it HERE!
Another bright, shabby happy booth.
If I only had pictures of all the booths I've ever set up!
This is the quilt I made for my dear Auntie Winna. She is in her 70's...she just stood there and wept when I handed it to her at my mom's 80th Tea Birthday Party I put on for her last year. 
The quilt on the left is the one I made for my dear, dear friend Jenette. While making it I was praying so for her family...her husband was dying of cancer. She too came to my mom's 80th birthday party where I presented her with this. Our's is a 30 year incredible friendship! I love you Jenette!
Everyone always wants to buy my lamps at shows. Maybe I'm in the wrong business!
My sweet little Ashley hard at work. A few years ago she left her single life in Boise to come home and help with the business and go on the road with her dad while I was down on my back. Everyone still misses you on the road kiddo! I love you!

So that's all for today folks.
Get some stitchin' in!
Quilting Hugs,
