I dunno Ricky, I think with that earring you would have to wear a bikers scarf rather than the Stetson. I also think those earrings would look much better on me. :mrgreen:

Great job Connie! Thanks for reporting for us.

Your roving reporter is back on duty! So much to see, so little time..

The not-to-be-missed experience of today was the Tentmakers of Cairo exhibit. Incredible artistry!

[gynconnie]

Can you tell that I'm partial to birds?

[gynconnie]

All these incredible works of art are for sale. I couldn't leave without one.

[gynconnie]

Here is one of the Tentmakers in action. He sewed with both incredible speed and dexterity!

The gracious Suzanne Marshall with "Echoing Spring", winner of Best Wall Hand Workmanship.

More of Janet Stone's incredible "Charm School". This quilt has so many unique elements that its hard to keep track of them all. Margo has already posted a picture of the front; here's the BACK of her fully reversible masterpiece.

[gynconnie]

Here's a closer look...remember that all this embellishment was on the BACK! :shock:

[gynconnie]

TQS member Robin Gausebeck's miniature beauty, "In Flanders Fields". The raw edge appliqué was unbelievably fine and precise. You'd have to see it in person to fully appreciate it.

And of course pat Holly's "Tiny Tigers 2"!!!

[gynconnie]

Of course a quilter has to eat. Here are some of the lines at the lunch tent.

The Rotary Club of Paducah holds an antique quilt show every year. It's year the theme was signature quilts, and it was curated by Sue Reich. Wonderful exhibit!
