Cherrywood Fabrics was created 32+ years ago with a commitment to high quality cotton fabrics. With multiple washings in the dyeing process, the fabric, although cotton, has the look of suede...and the colors are absolutely beautiful. In recent years they have sponsored the Cherrywood Challenge, where quilters can submit a 20" x 20" quilt reflecting the chosen subject matter. There are specific guidelines and it is truly amazing the detail and creativity that quilters from around the world create within. The themes have included Wicked, The Lion King, Van Gogh. The current traveling exhibit is Prince, and the 2019 challenge, which you can still enter, is Bob Ross!!!
The current traveling exhibit is Prince, in honor of the musical innovator, and it is amazing. I will be giving you a close up of the Home Tour when it reaches the Sisters Outdoor Quilt Show this summer, but I had to share with you the "Prince Losers Lane."
The Prince show was displayed at Quiltfest, Northwest Clark County Quilters Regional Show which you can view on Quilt Roadies. What I loved is how this guild supports its members. Three of the members entered the Cherrywood Challenge, but their quilts were not chosen for the traveling exhibits...undaunted, the guild rallied around their brave and creative participants and created the Prince Losers Lane which hung along side the traveling exhibit, LOL. Being part of a supportive guild is such a wonderful experience. I apologize that the photos have distracting ribbons and info on them...everyone deserves their 15 minutes of fame!!!
