I wasn't going to show these, because I took so few. But, I thought maybe someone would enjoy seeing the few I took.

Our quilt show is held at the Harrah's Automobile Museum. It is just unlike any quilt show I ever went to.

I am sorry I got so few pics and none of the featured quilter's. I wasn't feeling well and left early.

Thanks for the pics. I never get tired of looking at quilts. That's why I'm on this site several times a day :)

wow- 2 of my favorites in one place! I agree- the pinkish batik jacket is my favorite too!

Thanks for sharing!!!

Great idea to have the show in a car museum. Get's the non-quilting men into the show.
The second quilt is a "Piece o' Cake" design by Linda Jenkins and Becky Goldsmith. I think their designs are so bright and cheerful.

I love the idea of a car show and quilt show combined. my DH is into cars and I quilt, what a good combo.

Love that pineapple quilt, I would love to make one of those if I could find an easy pattern.

Thank you for sharing this, wonderful.

I think that's GREAT that they held the show in the car museum. I wonder how many men who had no interest in quilting went with for the ride. Out of those men, I wonder how many men had a better understanding of quilting.

Thank you for sharing ! That was more than a few photos !

RedGarnet222 08-13-2011 06:14 AM

I am so glad that you all enjoyed looking at the quilt show pictures. There were many many rooms that I didn't get to this year because I was not well. Dang it.. I wait all year for this show. There are some very talented quilters in this area... honestly!

I will check at the truckee meadows guild's site and see if they have thier pictures up yet of the show.

Glassquilt 08-13-2011 08:43 AM

Great way to combine two hobbies in one.

RedGarnet222 08-13-2011 09:43 AM

Yes it is really fun to have it set up in the auto museum. I don't know if you noticed, but there is also garments in cases from different eras as well. So interesting to see those and all the accessories from back then.
