Tokay Stitchers put on beautiful show
Filed Under Designers, Quilt shows | 6 Comments
Every other year the Tokay Stitch ‘n Quilt Guild of Lodi, California, put on a delightful show. While I was there I was so happy to see guild member Thelma Welch once again. Two years ago I blogged about her unbelievable Baltimore Album quilt, and at about 85 years of age, Thelma is still at it. Look at this elephant quilt that is one of her latest creations.
The show’s featured quilter was Fran Schmidt. Here’s Miss Fran in her sparkly sash denoting her status.
We made her put on the tiara too.
Here’s one of her many wonderful quilts that were part of the featured display.
As usually happens at a show, I made some new vendor friends. Across the hall from me I discovered the elegant appliqué designs of Bobbie Y. Jarrett.
That’s some eye candy for us appliqué enthusiasts, no?
Right next door to me were two fantastic ladies who are just starting out on this designing adventure, and IMO they’ve got “it.” Meet Rita Traxler and Debbie Holland of Lady Bug Lace.
Rita and Debbie
Until next time,
Kay
