What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

Here are photos from the string quilt class.

I LOVE meeting other quilters in person! Zoom does in a pinch but there's nothing like being together physically with quilters!

Thursday night I presented a trunk show to the guild. They meet in Citrus Heights, CA.

Paula Harden met us for dinner and attended the guild meeting. You may know her on Instagram at LaLa Quilts  She is an extremely talented quilter so was thrilled she would want to meet me and see my quilts. 

Saturday we met for class (I'll give you highlights on Friday about the day between trunk show and workshop)

Laura, from the North Idaho Quilters Guild finished her quilt from class! Yay! I love it! She took random size strips and center pieces and made liberated log cabin blocks! Isn't it wonderful?!

Most of you know I was on the road again last week. Wheee! Driving through 2 hours of snow wasn't fun, but other than that I had a blasT!

Show and tell is below. Always fun to see what kind of quilts are made.

I really want to make one of these now!

Good job Laura.

Bobbi made this sweet wheelchair quilt. 

It has pockets too lined with flannel to keep your hands warm. 

That is really wonderful!

If anyone else wants to share projects they did in class I'd ...

It is so fun to take quilt classes. It is a good way to learn new techniques, make a fun quilt and meet new and old friends. Recently I was able to teach my String Quilts Your Way worshop. Each student makes a string quilt that they chose! Such a great class because your quilt will be unique yours!

This is Judy's string quilt that she started in class last month in McMinnville. Such great colors!

She used the pattern from APQ for this quilt that was published last year. 

Thank you to those who took my basket class ...

If I was going to have a quilt shop, I'd want it to look just like this! 

It was a little rainy heading from Portland to Litchfield for our appointment to shop at Cyndi's quilt shop. 

The link to Cyndi's blog- HERE.

Filled with lots of quilts and almost exclusively reproduction fabric!

Cyndy's potholder quilt! Amazing reproduction.

Oh yes! 

Here is Cascadia, one of my quiltalongs. 

So simple but effective and so sweet!
