Oh, Joy....the quilt show is behind us for another two years. So much work, so many compliments, so much joy! I helped make all the demonstrations come together. We had 13 over the course of two days and they were all spectacular. Each demonstration was unique....rug hooking, smocking, stained glass, cathedral windows, free motion quilting, bobbin work with beautiful decorative threads, back-basting applique technique. Oh, and the vendor's booths were full of fabrics, beads, pottery and sewing machines (new and vintage...what a treat.) Seeing the beautiful hand crafted quilt frames and racks and ladders took quite a bit of my free time. Oh and patterns galore and handmade treasures, and did I mention fabric!
Was nice to relax this morning and sort through my purchases...where do I begin? When will I be finished? What am I going to sew first? Oh, the stress of it all!
You are right....the picture has nothing to do with the quilt show. I played in Photoshop for quite a while this morning....haven't had that freedom in quite a few days. Was nice. I visited Washington State and Canada's Vancouver, BC a couple of years ago...visited a few wineries. This is just a combination of pictures taken at the Ste Chateau Michelle. Acres of beautiful secret gardens and patios and paths to stroll while sipping one their wines. Was a very happy afternoon!
Your quilt show sounds like it was great fun, if a little exhausting. And I like the new Photoshop piece. So much to dabble in, so little time . . .
