My entries in the Skagit County Fair 2024!

If you are interested...here are the pieces I entered in the Skagit County Fair this year.  We have lots of fun at the fair - quilts and needlework are in the same building so it is easy to see everything.  And our local fiber artists get lots of ribbons!

Poinsettia Wreaths - pattern by Teri Christopherson. 


Springbrook Blossoms - pattern by Corey Yoder. 
This was a friendship block collection from my 
friends at Quilters by the River!
They made most of the blossoms - I made all the leaves.

Threadmongers upcoming shows! April 2024

I have already enjoyed being a vendor at the Kitsap Quilters, Quilters Anonymous, and Tri-Cities Quilters shows during 1Q 2024!  

Next up is the Clark County Quilters' show - known as "Quiltfest Northwest"!  April 4-5-6 at the Clark County Event Center in Ridgefield. 

[Full disclosure - I'm a member of Clark County Quilters!]

This is always a BIG show with LOTS of variety to share!  Special exhibits, demonstrations, featured quilter, vendors, opportunity quilt, challenge quilts and blocks, and the wonderful works of the members!

Plan to attend if you are anywhere near southwest Washington and hey, it's worth driving to if you love great quilt shows!

Threadmongers will be there with all your favorites plus silk ribbon and some new-to-you threads that will make your projects amazing!

Look for more updates on the Threadmongers Facebook page and get ready for more 2024 quilt shows!  

You definitely need thread!
