People were plentiful, the sun was glorious, sales were down, but it was a lovely second Saturday in July, 2009. You just can't help being on cloud nine to visit such a quaint little Central Oregon town in the middle of July and see all those quilts flapping in the breeze. My hat's off to the organizers and sponsers and volunteers who put on this show ever year. This was my first year to enter quilts in the
SOQS, and since the economy was not in our favor, sales were the lowest they have ever been. Emerald Quilts, a consignment shop next to the
Stitchin Post, sells quilts and it was a pleasure to meet Barbara. If you ever travel through Sisters, stop in and browse her inventory. You'll find some great treasures reasonably priced. Some of the profit from her sales goes to fund the SOQS. Pictures from top to bottom: Main Street Sisters, Becky's Kings Golden Highway, Patty's X-Blocks, my Coffee Cats, and Anna's Ribbons and Bows. SOQS arranged the quilts according to color and setting that complimented the colors. I thought it was a beautiful display all over town. Impressive!
