Here are some gorgeous quilts photos that I did not want to forget to share! These were all in the Sisters Quilt Show and somehow I didn't get them into the various categories, and almost forgot to showcase them.
Log cabins and medallions from Gwen Marston in the Sisters Outdoor Quilt Show: Teacher's Tent
Or this beauty from the talented Rosalie Dace:
Quilts that were liberated and modern use color so simply, yet beautifully like those of
Jean Wells and others:

Or these from the abstract and modern groups which share quilting's rich diversity:
Inspire me from line, to individualistic pattern, to the incredible use of color......
Even the old fashioned string quilts are so amazing now! From the early days of our grandmother's, to the 90's quilts of Gwen's Liberated Strings to the gorgeous ones so many of us are loving, today. Just look at this one!
And if that doesn't make you want to try a string quilt, how about some gorgeousapplique or piecing? From this amazing landscape quilt....
...to a modern and diverse I've not yet seen quite like....
...to the always fabulous birdhouses of several of the teachers quilts:
...to some intricate and fabulous applique'...and the one below is from a gal near me in Oregon.....

Oh my, still more beautiful work! The pictorial quilt really stands out from the others (for me) although that one from Oregon reminds me of Mary Lou Weidman!
Love all them.I agree,I`d love make most of them!!
This is a beautiful post. I have so appreciated all your photos from Sisters. I feel like you were thinking of me when you took each photo because our taste in quilts seems to be so similar. One of these years, I am going to make it to this festival.
You have been so much in my thoughts and prayers lately. I wish you only beautiful days and extraordinary quilts!
Thanks for the quilt show! I thought about you today as I looked at quilts at our fair, no pictures, I failed to charge the battery in my camera. These quilts are so interesting.
Love them all , they inspired me so much. Thanks for sharing these.
