Quilt show!

The Stray Threads Hollywood Encore Quilt Show was this past weekend. Stray Threads is my quilt guild, which means I got to participate in the show! I entered three quilts:

"Forest Canopy":

I had to add a ginormous sleeve (88" long), but it was totally worth it to see this one hanging. Many thanks to my father-in-law who let me borrow the quilt to hang in the show!

"Autumn House":


There's me and Little Bear. Big Bear was there as well, but he wasn't feeling well and was disinclined to pose for the camera.

Lastly, "The Bunny Quilt":

Me and my Hop to It quilt

Pardon the weird lighting in the picture-- the quilt was hanging right in front of a window. This one was finished just in the nick of time! I'll be sharing more about this finish soon.

Seeing my quilts hanging in the show was awesome. There were some amazing quilts there, and it was truly a privilege to have my quilts hanging right there with them.
