Umpqua Valley Quilt Show

The Umpqua Valley Quilters Guild Show was this last weekend at the Douglas County Fairgrounds, in Roseburg, Oregon. It is the BEST show in Southern Oregon!! Over 300 quilts are entered, and many other special displays and vendor quilts samples. The featured quilter is Dr. Polly Sepulvada of Roseburg. She has been in the Paducah show many times, and does beautiful work in applique, hand quilting and traditional style quilts. Our Fyber Cafe group, has a display of our last three group challenges, "What's My Line?" "Beatles Songs" and "Weaving" I'll post some pictures of our textile arts display. I made name tags for the pieces on the computer, mounted them on bits of mat board, and put strips of magnet on the back. Another bit of magnet behind the sheet, held the sign in place. We also handed out business cards with our group info, and quiet a few were taken, maybe we'll have new artists join us next meeting. Thank you so much Umpqua Valley Quilters Guild for allowing us to exhibit our work at your show.
