SSNQDFMP - Flash Mob Parade for National Quilting Day!

Yes!  We had our annual Super Spontaneous National Quilting Day Flash Mob Parade in downtown Sedro-Woolley!!  To celebrate National Quilting Day and to give folks a heads up on our Blast of Baskets Quilt Show coming up June 3-4-5!!

The downtown core is nice and compact - so we can easily cover all of the territory and make it back to Cascade Fabrics for the grand finale!

National Quilting Day always deserves a parade, don't you agree?

Thanks, Charlotte Furchert,

for spearheading this fun event again!

Reynola Redux!

Can't resist - here are a few more photos from our fabulous quilting weekend!!

Quilting friends are the best friends!

Ask us how we know!

 

 

 

Reynola inspires us all!

Thanks!  To Reynola Pakusich for patiently teaching us the art of overlapping circles, to Elsie Summers for two catered lunches so delicious that we had no idea we were "eating healthy", and to the Woolley Fiber Quilters and friends who came and made this weekend full of quilting fun!

As usual, we came away inspired, tired, and ready to make use of our newly acquired skills.  You will see some of these great pieces at our Blast of Baskets quilt show June 3-4-5.  In downtown Sedro-Woolley!

2016 quilt show - you guessed it - our theme is Blast of Baskets!

We normally select a theme for the next year, AFTER the current year's show.  Technically, we did that this year...

But there was no doubt that our 2016 theme would be "Blast of Baskets"!

This theme has taken on a life of its own, and people were making basket quilts even before the 2015 show was over!!

So get your best basket blocks on and let's have a knockout show AGAIN in 2016.  Just wait until you see the great quilt show we will put together for you.  The bed turning and new raffle quilt are both already being planned and begun.  Can you believe it? 

Blast of Baskets - 2016 raffle quilt!
