COMQG Summer Rewind Post 2

We've been having so much fun this summer and not updating the blog much!
So we're going to have recaps all week long of some of the fun things we did. 

Today it's the Sisters Outdoor Quilt Show.

We had an informal MQG Meetup in the park. We had members from Seattle, Eugene, Portland, Corvallis, Central Oregon, and Kansas City MQGs come by. Look for this to be a regular feature for the Sisters Outdoor Quilt Show in the future. It was so nice to spend a few minutes relaxing in the park in the shade with fellow MQG members.


Of course, seeing our Inspired by Gee's Bend challenge quilts hanging on Sisters Drug was a special honor. Our quilts looked amazing and we received so many compliments.  



And finally, Tula Pink's quilts were hung at Five Pine lodge on Sunday, and it was a pretty wonderful experience, seeing the quilts hung so beautifully in with the trees and wildflowers!

COMQG Summer Rewind Post 1

We've been having so much fun this summer and not updating the blog much!
So we're going to have recaps all week long of some of the fun things we did. 

First up is a recap of some shows that happened in August with COMQG guild members:

We displayed our Inspired by Gee's Bend challenge quilts. There's just nothing better than an outdoor quilt show!

Thanks Kayla for the pictures!

Another fun thing a couple of us did was participate in the Black to White Challenge for a special exhibit at Quilt Knit Stitch in Portland a couple weeks back. 

Here's Sarah's picture of someone admiring her beautiful quilt
