Paducah 2013 -some favorites

I'm trying to share some pictures of my favorites. I didn't get so terribly many pics because I didn't want to make my mom and sister constantly be waiting on me to get a clear shot--it was crowded! There's also a YouTube slideshow of the winners of the various categories if you search YouTube for "Paducah 2013 winners".

    We had the best time. We laughed so much with each other I'd lose my breath and my stomach is sore from it today. Most of it was in the car on the way home after I missed our interstate split. It pays to have family with a good sense of humor when you see a "Welcome to Tennessee" sign and you aren't going to Tennessee.

    Thanks for posting. I'd love to go someday - although my quilts will never make it there.

    WOW! Bold faced and in large letters!

    Never know whether to keep quilting like crazy or give it all up when I see such wonders.

    There were more quilts than I'd ever seen using 1/2 inch hexagons as an element (I was always looking for them) and my mom is crazy about hexagons. She was pleased, but she was funny, too, properly impressed by the whole concept of 1/2 inch hexagons. Her's are 1 3/4 inches. "HUGE" she laughs now.

    Thanks for the link to your blog, Karen! It's very nice to meet you and see another hand quilter. I read it a bit, enough to see you use a paddle, and enough to find an excuse to post a picture of the quilty things I bought at Paducah. I lured my mom and sister on the trip with promises of thimbles. These are all mine, mine, mine, two for thumb quilting and a pink one for finger quilting. I got my sister a matching pansy for her finger, but my mom had tried on a too-small-for-me silver Roxanne's and got stars in her eyes so she wouldn't have another one.

    Amazing trip.............I'd start drooling at the Kentucky border. Keeps a person humble when you see all that artistry under one roof.
