From The Sick Bed

Why is it that just before the holidays some nasty cold knocks you for a loop? 2 days of sleep & I'm feeling better. Here's some of the quilts that have come & gone recently.

Some Seussical magic from Mary.

Grandson #5 gets Jonne's cute antique toy quilt.

Julia made this great Christmas quilt. I think she'd been working on it awhile. Best of all, it's done! I had fun with all the little squares.

Liked this freehand holly border.

Lots more to show you. Just need to upload the pictures. 

Hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving. We are headed to the Little Mister's house.

Be back soon.

"My Heart Belongs to Quilting"
2014

I've heard about the wonderful quilt show in Spokane, & this year I got to go.
So here's a little of what was there.
500 quilts & over 50 vendors

 Loved ow the quilting made tho wall hanging sing.

A fun Mary Lou inspired cow quilt.

Grandma hankies & pillow cases make a lovely memory quilt.

The next 3 pictures are great examples of modern, what I call "divide & conquer", quilting.

A stunning winner. 

Another one. Knocked it out park piecing & quilting. 

They award ribbons to the machine quilter of award winning quilts.

Made me smile.

More fab piecing & quilting.

Love the modern quilting. Divide & conquer.

Ideas for future quilting. Freehand with stencils.

More modern inspiration.

Just because I liked it.

Save the date for 2015!

Will I see you there?

Here's a link to the WSQ Spokane Chapter.

Mr S & I made a long weekend of our trip to the quilt show. Ate at several Diners, Drive Ins & Dives restaurants & this great find(Thank you Wanda) Twigs. Made a quick stop at Grand Coulee Dam & drove over the North Cascade Highway coming home.

I've been busy quilting away here.

I'll catch up soon.
