Need Sisters show report!
(Trouble with the German ng server today)
Looking for reports to come in, too... here's what I got from a husband who followed his wife around "just like all the other husbands": quoteQuite something. A bit over 1000 quilts, most displayed outdoors on the front of buildings, but a few inside. I'm told they were expecting 25,000 people in a town of 1,000 residents, and I wouldn't be surprised if it was, but the crowds weren't too bad because the displays cover both sides of 30 or more blocks. It was only in the 90s, but the problem was walking up and down those sun-drenched streets with only occasional shade. I think there are a lot of people nursing nasty sunburns.end quote -- Dot (Flo Cala) Delete whome in address to reply. "Sbtypesetter" wrote in message ... Hi all of you who went to the Sisters quilt show yesterday. Time to tell about what all you saw, bought, drooled over. I noticed when I attended last year that New York Beauty and an appliqued cat design (12 blocks) were the most popularly done quilts, so I was wondering what the trend was this year. Also, who was the guest artist, and what style were those quilts in. (Last year's artist was fantastic). TIA SueB |

Lots of photos of quilts at the Sisters' show:

Thanks, Dot...great pics. I got to use a Roadrunner connection to see
these. Boy, are you Roadrunner guys spoiled! If I had done this on my own dial up connection I'd still be waiting for the page to load! Dee in LeRoy, NY "Flo Cala" wrote in message ...

Wish I was the one who took the pics! My daughter was out that way and
invited me to fly out to visit the show, but I couldn't. Found the photos via a fellow poster in another NG. I viewed them on my standard dial-up. Not too bad a wait time at all, though I realize some have slow connections -- hence, the warning. -- Dot (Flo Cala) Delete whome in address to reply. "DDM" wrote in message ...
