OREGON/WASHINGTON FALL RETREAT
#681
#682
Just wondering... I lurk from time to time here and see what the OR/WA contingent are up to. (Dreaming of the day I will be able to foist the kids on the husband and attend a retreat!)
Are any of you ladies planning on attending the Northwest Quilters Expo at the Portland Expo Center this weekend? Their show runs through Saturday. I thought maybe I might run into some of the QB'ers there?

Thanks, I am hoping to take a few pictures to share with the board, but we will see. Often at these things I end up just looking, gawking and oohing and ahhing and totally forget to take pictures!

How was the show? We got back from our other obligation at 4:15 - I could've made it to the show for the last hour of it but decided it was a high cost to pay (gas, parking, entry fee) for only one hour. Maybe next time. I sure hope you enjoyed it!

The featured quilter, Carol Brown, was a real treat. Her quilts had a large variety of techniques, a wide range of colors and styles. She is really a diverse and talented quilter who does some very beautiful applique work.
Incidentally, the quilts that won first prize for Applique and Machine Quilted would not have been my choices. I do so wish they would share the judging criteria so I could understand their choices better. Makes me think I was looking at the quilts and missing something important.
Sorry you could not make it but this is a busy season for quilt shows. The Clark County Quilters have their show next weekend in Vancouver - not a huge show but it is well put together and has a fair amount of quilts for a local guild show. The entry fee is $6, I think, but no parking fee. A little more reasonable than the other.
