a friend and i went to the rose festival then the quilt show today and oh my! it was so neat!! the roses were gorgeous and the weather perfect! then we went to the convention center for the quilt show. i was...speechless? we looked at hundreds of beautiful quilts (and a few weird ones!). i got noah with some 'manly' quilts...btw there were several quilts done by men there! but i found the mustang quilt (for my dad) and the tool basket quilt. then of course the jungle quilt matches his room and does the noah's ark quilt need an explanation? it was a challenge to me to get into quilting and a challenge to stay away because these were so intricate and amazing! my favorite quilt was a first place, best of show quilt of a town scene that was quilted in only thread with over 1500 hours put into it and 50,000 yards of thread and 5 million hand sewn stitches... i was enthralled! anyway, i thought some pretty pics of something besides my son would be nice.
and i have to add, i love my wonderful husband for encouraging my son to enjoy roses and quilts! what a man!
oh, and our first family pic...i'll have to put more on later...noah was really hamming it up!
oh, and if you hold the mouse (cursor) over the picture it will have words come up!
