I think Spring Might Be Here!`

About a month ago I went to a quilt show with a friend and I am finally going to show you the pictures that I took!  The show was in Hillsboro, Oregon and if you read other blogs from this area you probably have seen the quilts already.  There were so many wonderful quilts and quite a few vendors.



This was a very well done Dear Jane in bright colors!

This one might have been my favorite - I love purple.










This one was very interesting a I loved the scrappyness.

A man made this one and I loved the soft colors.



This one was gorgeous and very impressive.

 


The show was in great venue and it was so refreshing to go to my second quilt show after not having any for years.  There is another one next weekend that I might go to even though I have a craft show as well.  It's not too far away and my "business partner" can handle the craft show if I go for a couple hours.

This morning I basted a lap quilt, 2 table runners and a small wall hanging.  The lap quilt will be for sale, as will the table runners.  That is, if I get them finished.  This is a busy week as both of the guilds that I belong to have meetings this week.  Then I signed up for a Gentler curves & circles work shop with Karla Alexander.  If I wasn't so busy I would be happy about going, but I might offer my space to someone else if they want to take it.  I rarely take a class so I'm not sure what possessed me to sign up.

Thanks for visiting!

QUILT SHOW IN HILLSBORO, OR

Saturday, I went to the Westside Quilters Guild Quilt Show in Hillsboro, OR.  It was a beautiful drive through the countryside from where we live and there were many amazing quilts!  I didn't take very many pictures, so this is only a small sampling of the quilts they had on display.

This first one is stunning!


This "veggie cat" quilt is excellent and adorable.


I took a few close-up shots too.  As you can see, the cats are in the shape of a vegetable!








I loved this quilt.  The pieces are 1" each!


This one was interesting and a lovely wall hanging.




This was one of my favorites and was all made out of half-square triangles (HSTs)!







Hope you enjoyed the show!  And, yes, I did buy some fabrics from vendors and we visited a tiny quilt shop too.  It was a very fun day!
