Sisters ... (part 2)


These were some pretty cool cats!


We were enjoying these "paint chip" challenge quilts when it began to sprinkle.


Soon the ladder crew arrived to rescue the hanging quilts.


It was a good thing too because soon it was coming down in buckets. After that, only the indoor displays were there to see. Still, we managed to see quite a bit and the atmosphere was just super.


And after the rain? A dinner with the whole gang and the most wonderful sisters of all, my eldest and youngest daughters, who with their families, made the whole day possible.

A trip to Sisters (part !)

Some opportunities don't knock twice. I have been to Oregon quite a few times, by now, but this was the first time to hit the area during the Sisters quilt show. The whole family was determined I would make the most of my visit, so Saturday morning, we set off in two cars for Sisters and the show.


It was still morning when we arrived but there were people everywhere enjoying the many quilts.


The Stitchin' Post had beautiful quilts both inside and out.









Quilts make a pretty background for my two youngest granddaughters.

Sorry, I didn't write down the names of the quilts or the makers. The afternoon became more and more windy and those quilts were really dancing in more ways than one.

Since I am having difficulty down-loading so many pictures, I will see if a second post will take the rest.
