In 1992, Jonathan Shannon was the first man to win Best of Show in Paducah. Jonathan always loved planes and enjoys the fact that the quilt appeals to quilters and non-quilters alike. He chose early model planes for their graphic design and nostalgic appeal. Everything about this quilt embodies the qualities of flight and motion. This is not Jonathan's only quilt in the Top 100. In the future you'll see another of his designs.

The sights, sounds, designs, and people are amazing. We are anxious to get our pictures together and share it all with you. We won't rival Pam Holland, but I'm sure you will love seeing Africa with us.
We were within 100 feet of this, happily, uninterested King.
This exhibit at the International Quilt Festival showcases the "cream of the crop" of traditional quilts and their artists from quilting guilds and groups across the great state of Texas. This is just a sampling of the exhibit.
With Alex and Ricky on the road to Africa (or is that on the plane, train, and boat?), we thought we'd share a fun video of quilter's license plates. Some of you might remember that this all began in the Road to California parking lot last year and expanded when TQS asked its members to share their license plates. Once again showing that creativity has no bounds, we present Quilters Hit the Road.
Some of you wondered where to sign up for the Sisterhood of the Traveling Triangles Exchange. Over 202 quilters have signed up already!
If you want to sign up for the triangle exchange, click here.
We are working on a method for making updates to the exchange easier to find. Stay tuned.
Just who are these happy quilters? They are members of TQS meeting up in the Superior Threads booth at Road to California in Ontario, CA. Were you there?
In Show 802: Tips and Tricks for Triangles and Strips with Edyta Sitar, you learned the value of a half-square triangle. In this slideshow you will learn to appreciate not only half-square triangles, but diamonds, rectangles, and strips. Come and enjoy the beautiful quilts of Edyta Sitar.
