Good Morning to all of you. I have been preparing for our Quilt Guild's Annual Quilt Show. I am going to enter some quilts for the first time ever. I will be entering 2 small Paul Klee inspired applique pieces, my scrappy 9 patch, the still to be completed Western Quilt...
Needless to say I have been stitching like crazy. I have one more cattle brand to stitch on the western quilt and binding. Nothing like waiting until the last minute. I needed some motivation to finish this one and this is it. I think I will get it done!
I also volunteered to paint some sandwich boards to place around town the day of the show. I have them complete and I need to do a bit of touch up today. I learned quite a bit on this project. I now can tell you what not to use when making stencils for spray painting lettering. Thankfully my neighbor had some sturdy plastic I was able to cut the stencil from and use spray adhesive to hold the stencil in place while I sprayed the paint.
I will return next week and fill you in on the adventures at the Gold Beach Quilt Guild Show.
I was a vendor at the Gold Beach Quilt Show many, many years ago, when I had my quilt shop in Ashland. I still remember what a great show it was and how much fun I had. I hope it hasn't changed. I love your quilt posted here. Wonderful color, and I am quite crazy about the dots!
