A Not-to-Miss Quilt Show

In a departure from the usual, I am giving you a heads-up on a great quilt show coming up this weekend.  As well as the wonderful special exhibits listed, you will get a chance to see many of the quilts that have been featured on this blog!  That's right, many of the student finishes from prior posts have been entered.  Don't miss this opportunity to see these flimsies-NOT up close and personal.

Here's the info:

The Endless Mountains Quilt Guild is hosting a quilt show at the Lynch-Bustin Elementary School in Athens, PA, on Saturday and Sunday, September 22 and 23.  Hours are 10-5 on Saturday and 10-4 on Sunday.  Come see approximately 300 quilts made by guild members, plus an exhibit of Portrait Quilts by Marilyn Belford, a display of antique and reproduction Civil War quilts by Betty Neff, a 40 quilt collection from the newly released Hoffman Challenge, and a bed turning of antique quilts paired with modern versions.  Quilted items made by members will be for sale.  Food is available.  The facility is wheelchair accessible and parking is free.

For more information, please visit their website:  http://emqg.org/2012show.html

What's the photo about?  Glad you asked!  That's the opportunity quilt that you, yes you!, could win!

Trust me, it'll be worth the drive.  Tell them you heard about the show here!  

Blissful hugs,

Sharon

P.S.  I am listening to The Columbus Affair by Steve Berry (I may have listed this before; I can't remember) and I am reading Animal Magnetism by Rita Mae Brown (non-fiction); it is excellent.
