That's Colorado and Wyoming in the spring for you.
The talk for the Cheyenne Heritage Quilters was about quality, workmanship -- and how to add those touches in your quilts that make them something special. I asked four people whose work I've admired to let me borrow a few of their pieces to show. Gutsy, dears....and much appreciated. Donna Groesbeck, Linda Herget, Bea Dersham and Sue Frerich, you all do good work...and often enough include a predeliction for certain themes, colors and fabrics that are fascinating to this appraiser. Thank you for letting me show and tell about your work!
Oh, and Linda...I'm sorry I was such a doofus about starting on the backside for your second piece. You often experiment with both sides of the quilt -- I was tired -- and it didn't occur to me until I'd been yammering on for a while. You were very kind about it.
Now, Cheyenne friends, if you'd consider adding more embellishments... :)
Thank you for your kindness -- and kind words.
I'll be headed there again in late summer to help with their annual quilt show: August 16-18, 2018.
Here's a glimpse of their 2016 show - one aisle, at least. with permission from CHQ |
One of the funniest commercials I've seen in a while! The Brick was only mildly amused...but then, he's not the one who got a humidifier for Christmas one year.
(I'd thought the package was a sewing machine.)
