"Durango" won a ribbon at the Quilt Show!!!

This is "Durango". I named it after Durango Colorado where my Aunt/Uncle and cousins lived. We used to go there and visit during the summer. The remember the beautiful blue skies and turquoise!! This quilt reminds me of those days.

I was more than excited to see that ribbon on my quilt!! Very surprised and pleased.

It was the first quilt show put on by the Willamette Valley Quilt Festival committee. Next year I heard that they are planning on using the whole building at the Linn County Fair grounds. This year they used just part of the building and the quilt rows were a little too close together to get a good look at the quilts.

There were tons of people viewing the quilts, a fabulous turnout and probably 500 quilts.

I am very glad that I entered and plan on it again next year!!

That's it for now, take care and Happy Quilting!! Martha

      Thank you Pat!!! It was such fun quilting this one. And with it so small, it was a little easier to maneuver around!!
