    Hi Ladies! I'm back from Paducah. What a great experience Quilt Week was. The whole town celebrated quilts and quilters. I have posted pictures of my favorite quilts from the show in four seperate posts in the "pictures" section. They all have the words "Paducah Show" in them, if you care to go over there and see the quilts. Such amazing work... it was really mind boggling.

    I got to meet two sweet ladies from the QB as well: MelodyR and BeckyW. It's always fun to meet another QBer in person!

    Hope you had a very happy birthday Sunrise450.

    Can't wait to see your table runner. You will have to be sure to post a picture.

    Thanks to all for the Happy birthdays and all those charms! I have already picked out my 1st. pattern, a table runner. I am cutting out the background today and hopefully get it sewed tomorrow. I'll post a photo when I finish.

    I thought you ladies would enjoy seeing this quilt. It's not a show quilt, but was on display in one of the vendor booths. (There was probably a pattern for sale.) It uses charm squares in 9 patches, and then makes them look like milk cans with the added parts. So cute!
