PADUCAH, KY - APRIL 2018 (Part 2)
That time of the year is just past, and as always, it was a great show and there were lots of vendors. I always look forward to the quilt show in Paducah every year - winter is done, and it is time to be inspired to new projects. I felt like this year there were more vendors and fewer quilts, but maybe it was just how the show was set up or even my imagination. I really enjoyed the landscape and pictorial quilts at the show this year. So here are some photos of quilts from this year, there is no rhyme or reason, just simply quilts that caught my eye.

TIP: If you are planning on going to the show in Paducah and need a motel room you will want to make reservations several months in advance. I have personally found that getting a room for one night gets harder every year as the motels/hotels/B&B's want to rent to people who are staying for the entire event. I get my room in December and usually end up in Metropolis, IL as that is the closest room for a single night that is available.

BIRTHDAY QUILT
I made this quilt as a birthday quilt for my niece in Minnesota. Her favorite colors are teal and light yellow. The finished size is 44 x 50 inches. The border and backing are the same. Machine quilted by RLM. March 2018.
She loves it !!
THANKFUL HARVEST
I took this Thanksgiving panel and added 2 borders. I machine quilted around the cornucopia and on the borders. It is 20 x 26 inches. The backing is a brown and blue homespun. Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday, and I have several fall- themed quilted items.
