I know, I know...it is a virtual Quilt Week in Sisters, Oregon...but no one is the boss of us here in quilt country and we are going ahead with a spectacular virtual extravaganza! You have got to check out the happenings on the Sisters Outdoor Quilt Show site and the Stitchin' Post. Also, when you are throughly enjoyed yourselves, please go over to The Quilter's Affair and sign up for 2021!!! We are really going to party!!!
 
I had to stop by the Stitchin' Post because there is a wonderful mother/daughter display, which if you are traveling through town you must stop and see. Jean Wells Keenan started the quilt show 45 years ago with just a handful of quilts...now it has grown into a mega event and her daughter Valori Wells is at the helm of the Stitchin' Post ship. What better way to commemorate the history than by having a display in the Twigs Gallery by both these wonderful artists.
 
 
Here are just a few of the pieces you will see when you visit the Stitchin' Post.

I hope you enjoyed this peek and that you enjoy the virtual experience of the 2020 Sisters Outdoor Quilt Show!
 
Stay tuned and travel along with us on Quilt Roadies.

I met Jean Wells in Winterset, IA at a quilt meeting. I was visiting from TN- my daughters and grandkids Jean was someone that I remembered as being a renowned quilter from Quilters Newsletter back in 1979! She was often in the magazine. She was very gracious along with the rest of the hometown ladies to see my grandchildren's quilts.
