A Bit More Sharing from Seaport Quilters

Still working on sharing some of the memories I collected on my recent teaching trip. This time one of the workshop attendees 'Ginny Clark' came bearing quilts she had already created using my Fast-Piece Applique method... and boy did she ever create some beautiful 'heartfelt' quilts. I hope you enjoy these and forgive the photographer for not being able to show these to their absolute perfection!

Thank you Ginny!

Steppin Back to Idaho

Way back at the beginning of July I posted some pictures of my travels through an incredible area of the country called the Palouse and I mentioned Seaport Quilters Guild... what I didn't have a chance to share at that point was photos of some of the workshop participants. They were a great group and their landscape quilts were certainly inspired by the area surrounding their homes. I just had to share some of these with you. Seeing them here makes me want to visit them again, SOON! Enjoy....

2 Million Shades of Green

I have been a bit disconnected from my computer over thelast week, but not disconnected from my camera, nor disconnected from visits to some incredibly beautiful places. I was treated to the opportunity to visit Seaport Quilters Guild in ID -- but from one minute to the next you could be in WA, too, for they sit just across the river from one another. This crossing of WA to get to ID is what made me lucky enough to have been able to travel through The Palouse. And to take in the wonder ofthis area first hand.

My talk with the group there was on color and when I told them that the human eye can see somewhat close to 7Million colors.. and 2Million of them are greens they didn't really seemed amazed, but living so close to the Palouse and other of natures amazing areas one can understand. What I'm including here are just a few of the photos I was able to take of the area.

Then when I taught my Dream Landscape workshop there were quite a few inspirational photos of this beautiful area... look for some of those photos soon, too. Hope you all get a chance to experience this place in person some day!
