Thanks for the horses, they're awesome! I can only desire to quilt like that! I really really love the one you posted for Laurie! I wouldn't mind making that one too! For sure I'm going next year! I'm going to contact a friend who works at the Stitching Post and figure out the best place to stay. I'm sure she has some contacts as well as the rest of you.

Aren't you just totally awed the way some people can 'paint with fabric'? I never could imagine myself ever getting to that level.
The raffle quilt is neat. But will have to pass this time...I don't do diamonds. :thumbdown:

The final stop on our vacatio was the quilt show in Sisters. It was wonderful and if you ever get the opportunity to go, do it! Didn't know about the picnic in the park as we (me and hubby) hiked for 4 days before attending the show. Wonderful time in Oregon!!!

Laura,
Faith (Colbaltjars62) here. I was one of the gals you met at the Sisters Quilt show. You only walked 6 miles? Wow I think we walked about 10. LOL Probably not but there were quilts everywhere and looking at some of the pics that were taken I seemed to have missed a few. :-D
Did you find anything good a the shops on the way home?
It was great to meet you and yours and hope to see you there next year.
Faith :XD:

Laura-thanks for finding us on the board! Now I can get your name right! Glad to hear your trip was safe on your way back! Ohhh Cabellas what a fun place! I can spend hours in there. We just recently had a new one built in Eugene, OR but I haven't been to that one yet!
My friend is actually from Palermo. He was raised there lives off Ludlum Ave! It would be a small world if you happen to know them!
Looking forward to seeing you again in Sisters!

I met the artist/quilter of the storybook quilt with the door on it today. I searched Craig's list for material and quilting fabric and went out to West Linn and Oregon City. In Oregon City I met Linda Reichart (spelling?) who made the quilt with the door on it. I posted a pic of it a couple pages back. It was really exciting to read her business card and recognize her name!! I had no idea I would end up at her home for a garage sale!
And yep- I got a lot of good bargains today! Yardage of fabric I can use and a book all for 16.00 big ones! I scored and so excited about it! Love bargains- as Faith can be my witness too! Although our Bend garage/estate sales she seemed to score the best!
