Turn-in Day! And some set up on Wednesday, July 13

We had a GREAT turn-in day (in spite of printer issues) and have received 100% of quilts registered!  That's an achievement!  Our hardy registrar and her talented crew checked and rechecked everything.  So much anticipation seeing those stacks of quilts, by category, ready to become a quilt show!

We assembled and staged all of the quilt stands, with some excellent help from Burlington Rotary Club members!  Then, as we like to do, we hung the largest quilts to get a start on Thursday's work. 

Next, we'll hang the rest of the show and put on all those finishing touches that make a quilt show spectacular.  

PLEASE plan to come this weekend!  You'll be so glad you did.  If you are a quilter you'll be totally inspired to keep creating!  If you are a fiber artist, you'll find inspiration, too.  And if you are a quilt and fiber art appreciator, we have so much for you to enjoy!

Sponsor Spotlight: Quilters by the River

QBTR is a FUN, BIG group of Skagit County quilters who love to gather and share the craft of quilting!

Meetings are in Sedro-Woolley and are an opportunity to see and learn from friends as well as to admire all the quilts and creations during "show and share".  

Are you a Skagit independent quilter, looking for quilting friends and opportunities to get together and sew?  QBTR will welcome you!

Please look for more information at the quilt show July 15-16-17 and ask any of the volunteers about Quilters by the River!


Sponsor spotlight: Above and Beyond

Yes,  you are looking for a local longarmer with experience, knowledge, and talent!

Here's "Above and Beyond"!  Ready to take your quilt top to the next level. 

A great way to choose a longarmer is to study the quilts at a quilt show and see their work.  Come to the Woolley Fiber Quilters show and study the longarming of Above and Beyond.  You'll be so impressed!

Located in West Mount Vernon, Above and Beyond is centrally located and welcomes appointments.
