Sisterhood Saturday ~ Quilt Show at the Inn

photo a0f948ef-6f30-4f81-b86a-822e4fff56c5.jpg
Who took a few minutes for themselves this week?  Sometimes between the kiddo's, the hubbie, the house and the twin's cookin' in my belly I find it near impossible to even take a nice, long hot shower!  But this week I enjoyed myself at the annual Quilt Show at the Wolf Creek Inn.  It's a beautiful old Inn built in 1883 and is the oldest continuously operated Inn in the entire Pacific Northwest.  It's full of rich history, amazing people and even a ghost or two  =)  

 So if you didn't take any time for yourself yet, please enjoy viewing some of these amazing quilts.

Love the history given on this quilt ~ see below

Even the Guest Rooms are covered in quilts!
A previous Inn Keepers Quarters in the 1930's
Thank you to the Wolf Creek Inn for hosting this fun event.  It's amazing that you can eat and sleep in a 'living museum.'  I even saw the Clark Gable suite...Robert Redford slept there too!  If you are ever in Southern Oregon be sure to stop by, take a tour, have a bite to eat and enjoy the history told as only an Inn Keeper can!

    I LOVE looking at quilts and it has been awhile since I went to a quilt show- there are not many in our area. Aren't you just amazed at the artistry and skill of these sewers? I admire the creativity, too! Thanks for sharing these photos. Hope you get a nice long hot shower this week :)

    Hey, Marcy! I LOVE,LOVE,LOVE the wood "quilt" your husband made! My favorite oak tree broke in half during the last big snow storm :( I have been saving a big limb to make something, but hadn't been able to decide what--now I know! Think he might be up for a barter? :)

    That sounds fun! Let me know what you have in mind. I'm sure it has to dry quite a bit still tho (if it feel down this winter) I love his wood quilt too! Talk to you soon =)
