Lovely Tillamook on the Oregon coast is so famous for ----- Quilts!!
Home of the Latimer Quilt and Textile Center, the busy quilters of Tillamook metro produce a lively little quilt show in even numbered years. Lucky for you, it starts this weekend!!
Friday and/or Saturday, take a quick drive to the Tillamook County Fairgrounds (just east of town and just south of Hwy 6) to see what it's all about!
There are fiber arts as well as quilting and some other surprises in store.
They have a Facebook page - here's the link:

And I think you know that there are other great adventures to be had in and around Tillamook. Fun for the family!
So roll on out to Tillamook this weekend and join the fun! Guess what? Threadmongers will be there! The Tillamook quilters have already told me that they need thread. You do, too!
What fun to look forward to these terrific quilt shows in the Pacific Northwest - I love to see what these friendly and talented guilds have been doing, and to make sure they have the best THREAD for all of their projects! You will love these shows, too. Be sure to "catch them all"!!
