Mid April This and That from Humble Quilts

Jane Haworth was the guest speaker at the High Desert Quilt Guild. What charming quilts she makes!

I was able to get away on a nice Saturday and spend some time with my kids! We did an urban hike and this was the view!

I'm trying to get into backpacking fitness so I had a 15 pound pack on. Trying to keep up with the whippersnappers wasn't too difficult. LOL

I love Portland in the spring with so many lovely blooms.

Typical spring in Central Oregon. 60 degrees one day, snow the next! I get out to hike ...

Sunday Stash March 22, 2026 from Quilt Paint Create

No change in the numbers. There was opportunity to buy but no motivation.

I had a Guild meeting yesterday with Jane Sassaman as the guest speaker. She gave an interesting talk on her journey as an artist. I enjoyed the opportunity to study her quilts up close.

I also turned in my charity quilt and the red, white and blue blocks. With that challenge finished, the guild announced a “paint chip” challenge. It’s something I did years ago in a different group, and many other quilt groups/Guilds have done it since. Here is the paint chip from my ...

Glory Bee! from Humble Quilts

I presented a trunk show to the Northwest Quilters on Monday morning. It's always a fun time to be with quilters!!

Next month I'll be at Village Quilters in San Diego. I hope if you are close you'll check it out!

I took a quick photo of my table but it is hard to take a photo of the presentation when you are presenting! It was a very engaged group.

I was thinking I was moving right along on this Liberty Eagle project. I even shared it at the trunk show. I went home and measured it ...

How to Find Quilt Guilds Near You (And What to Do If There Isn’t One) from Patchwork Posse

If you love quilting, chances are you’ve heard about quilt guilds.

Guilds have long been a place where quilters gather to share ideas, learn new techniques, show off finished projects, and connect with others who enjoy working with fabric and thread just as much as they do.

For many quilters, joining a guild can be a great way to stay inspired, learn new skills, and make friendships with people who understand the excitement of a new quilt project.

But finding the right guild — or even finding one at all — isn’t always easy.

Let’s talk about a few ...

Glory Bee! Patriotic Quilts from my Collection

I have loved patriotic quilts and patriotic colorways since I took my first quilt class! I love history as well and these two loves go hand in hand.

I will be at Northwest Quilters, Inc Monday, March 9, 2026, at 9:30 am, at Immanuel Lutheran Church, 7810 SE 15th Ave, Portland, Oregon.

Most guilds have a small charge for guests but if you will be close by please stop in and be sure to say HI!

Good morning quilt friends!

Quilt Show! from From the Strawberry Patch...

I mentioned the Belknap Mill Quilters Guild in the previous post, they have provided a quilt on every bed in the rehab facility where my Dad is currently residing. It just so happened that the guild was holding their annual quilt show this past weekend. After telling dad "good-bye" I was able to stop and visit the show on our way out of town. The show was held at a local Community College, this

Valley Quilters Guild from Humble Quilts

This was my view of the lovely Valley Quilters Guild in Hemet, California!

I'd love to visit your guild!

Palm trees, a sure sign I'm not in Central Oregon!

Below was a few of the show and tell.

This was a weaving! I love it!

My host was Grace and she brought this family quilt for show and tell

It looks like another string quilt idea!

I loved the pieced backing!

I had a bit of time between the morning trunk show, lunch and my flight so I was treated to a couple quilt shop stops!

Madison Station Quilt Guild from Humble Quilts

I landed in Huntsville, Alabama on Wednesday. Quietest airport I recall ever going to! Huntsville is called Rocket City. It was my first ever trip to Alabama and I had a really wonderful time!

My friend, Sue, who I worked with at the Houston quilt show, was my host.

We made our way to a few quilt shops.

This was a huge shop and because of a church conflict I ended up teaching at this quilt shop. It had lots of everything, including reproductions, so it was my favorite!!

This was a Lowe Mill, a cotton mill back in its ...

Workshop from Humble Quilts

Yesterday I taught at a local guild. Wow! Fun and busy!!

They were great students and because it was the first time teaching this class I learned how I can teach it better.

They excelled!

They overcame the challenges of paper piecing.

They learned machine applique!

Or they opted to hand applique

Shirley struggled with the pp concept, but look at her amazing block!

Such petty varieties!

It was springlike outside and inside yesterday!

I think we were all ready for a break! I hope they finish there block and bring it to next week's guild meeting. I look ...

Here Comes the Sun 2 from Humble Quilts

Here is my final finish of the year. This is similar to the previous Sun block.

This one I used machine applique and machine quilting. There is no "right" or "wrong" in quilting.

I'm really thrilled with the outcome.

I wasn't sure which thread to use for the quilting and asked the facebook group. Like usual, I had a variety of responses. These were my choices.

This plum is what I used and it looks good. Thank you for all the suggestions.

This will be a new guild workshop for 2025. If you are interested in hosting me ...

Machine Applique from Humble Quilts

Christenna sent me a photo of her block from the machine applique class I taught in PA! I adore the way she framed it!! I love it when I'm inspired by "students" work. These ladies certainly didn't need me to hold their hand. They were amazing quilters!! So fun!

If you are looking for a trunk show or workshop, my schedule is flexible, Please don't hesitate to recommend me to your guild. I'll go almost anywhere and still utilize Zoom when asked.
