Quilt Expo

Finally I am getting a chance to post on Quilt Expo. I believe there were more quilts there this year than last. The show leans more toward traditional quilts than art quilts. I love to see them all. I went 2 days.. On Sat. when I went with Patti we were like a fine comb checking out all the stitching, quilting, applique.. I learn so much by looking at others work. I was excited to see my quilt in the show. And many of my friends had quilts in the show too. Milwaukee Art Quilters had their portals quilts in the show.. I still have to quilt mine.. ( love/hate thing.. ) So here I am in all my glory with my quilt "Gloria's Magic"....

Have you Hugged Your Cat Today?

THis is my quilt that I am donating for auction for my quilt guild this thurs. Why do I want to keep all the quilts I make when I am done?

Quilt Expo..

My sister and I had a good time at the show yesterday. I was shocked when we entered the area to see the quilts. Right in plain view was my quilt. It looked really nice. I was so happy. The quilts were beautiful and amazing as always. I will post a few of my favorites, some that my friends did. What works of art these pieces are. It was a long day for me because my friend Chris and I went to a SAQA (Studio art quilters association) dinner after the show. The gals were really nice and their work was incredible. It was good to see Wendy Butler Berns she has always been such an inspiration to me. If you click on the photo you can see it a bit bigger.
