My year has included lectures to various types of quilt guilds. I’m heading over towards Gig Harbor with the family today and was reminded I haven’t yet shown these fun pictures from my visit with the Gig Harbor Quilt Guild.
The guild has a great system for displaying quilts. I would talk about a quilt and hand it off to my lovely helper who would place it on one of the pews.
This system worked so wonderfully. I’ve gotta say these ladies were the most lovely group and laying the quilts out like this offered us all a chance to see the quilts up close and ask any questions.
I thought of two things, how the hell I fit all these quilts into my little house and that I’ve got triangles covered.
Have a great weekend!
You are a treat!

That is a lot of quilts! And all beautful
Wonderful quilts, it is a pleasure to follow your blog!!
You are so very talented and such an inspiration. I think your book is tremendous and it’s such a pleasure to follow your blog. One day I will make it across the pond to one of your classes!
Can’t wait!
Wow..that is an impressive sight. So many of my favs are there and yes……how do you fit all these in your house?
Beautiful – I don’t think there is one that I wouldn’t want. If I canjust make a fraction that are as great as these, I will be happy. 🙂
What a gorgeous display, Katie! You should be proud. 🙂
I’m in the Gig Harbor guild and we LOVED your lecture and trunk show.
Thanks Sherrie! I thought you guys were the best.
Beautiful treasure……loving the quilts. Absolutely amazing. Thanks for sharing.
p.s. Sherrie again from Gig Harbor. I just blogged about your program at our guild, which was my favorite in a long time: http://sherriequilt.blogspot.com/2013/07/modern-quilter-katie-pedersen.html

Sharing my love for quilting……
Wow, a stunning collection! Do you have a favourite on display in your home?
Ha, ha, they’re everywhere. I have no choice!
Wow! that’s a whole lot of quilts! Must have been wonderful to see them all like that.
So, so pretty. I wish that I could have been there to see them in person.
Oh my goodness. Imagine how long your presentation would have been if you had taken ALL the quilts. This looks like 25-30. What a treat for all these members.
Perfect way to see them up close and personal. It’s a blessing to have such a wonderful space to do that.
It must be such a rewarding experience to see them all laid out in one venue. Gosh it sure looks fab!
so beautiful to see them all displayed like that 🙂
Wow! That is a quite a pile of quilts! And a great way to display them too.
How fabulous to have all your quilts displayed together–I really love the lone star quilt! Did you have to wash and press all your quilts to get rid of fold lines or do you have some very cool way to store your quilts?
I try to roll them, but generally I don’t worry about it. xo
