The National <span>Juried<\/span> Show was disappointing.  I enjoyed the quilts in the smaller shows held elsewhere in town and the Trend-Tex Challenge more than the <span>Juried<\/span> show.  We weren&#8217;t allowed to take pictures of the quilts in the <span>Juried<\/span> show show I can&#8217;t show you those quilts.  I purchased the <span>catalogue<\/span> of quilts that were exhibited so that I would have pictures of the quilts but I have nothing to show you here.<\/p>\n<p>There was a large merchants mall where I managed to find some items to bring home with me.  \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/4.bp.blogspot.com\/_VOQOwkbSspA\/Rkkf_nfmUwI\/AAAAAAAAAwA\/iKjAiP9GumE\/s1600-h\/Blog+010.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/4.bp.blogspot.com\/_VOQOwkbSspA\/Rkkf_nfmUwI\/AAAAAAAAAwA\/iKjAiP9GumE\/s400\/Blog+010.jpg\" border=\"0\"><\/a> The fabric on the left was part of a kit to make <span>place mats<\/span>.

I was <span>inspired<\/span> by a <span>BQ<\/span> quilt in the Fall\/Winter 2006 issue of Quilt Sampler.  The quilt was featured in a shop in Tuscon, Arizona called The Quilter&#8217;s Market.  I have <span>scanned<\/span> the photo just in case you don&#8217;t have access to the magazine.  The photo is a little grainy but hopefully you can see the <span>BQ<\/span> quilt on the table done in vegetable and black and white fabrics.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/_VOQOwkbSspA\/RkkgAHfmUxI\/AAAAAAAAAwI\/pNNhSkC1Zqo\/s1600-h\/File0156.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/_VOQOwkbSspA\/RkkgAHfmUxI\/AAAAAAAAAwI\/pNNhSkC1Zqo\/s400\/File0156.jpg\" border=\"0\"><\/a><br \/>I also found a cute crate of black and white fabrics and some Laurel Burch cat fabric that I couldn&#8217;t leave behind.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/_VOQOwkbSspA\/RkkgBXfmUyI\/AAAAAAAAAwQ\/Ys4b_YqZiwc\/s1600-h\/Blog+012.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/_VOQOwkbSspA\/RkkgBXfmUyI\/AAAAAAAAAwQ\/Ys4b_YqZiwc\/s400\/Blog+012.jpg\" border=\"0\"><\/a> I also picked up a show pin and <span>CQA<\/span> thimble for my collection.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/_VOQOwkbSspA\/RkkgB3fmUzI\/AAAAAAAAAwY\/IiN2UWf3SWQ\/s1600-h\/Blog+002.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/_VOQOwkbSspA\/RkkgB3fmUzI\/AAAAAAAAAwY\/IiN2UWf3SWQ\/s400\/Blog+002.jpg\" border=\"0\"><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On May 5, 2007 our Quilt Guild chartered a bus to take us to Quilt BC in Kamloops.
