Desert Quilters of Nevada Quilt Show
Whitney Ranch Recreation Center, Henderson, NV
A quilt show at home means so much to me, Las Vegas is a popular place for conventions so I have always felt that it's a great place for a quilt show! A big thank you to Sandy Baker, our quilt show chair and everyone at DQN for putting this show together! Come check out my booth and the two quilts I entered in the show! Having quilts in a show is a first for me! I've had quilts that I longarmed entered by their makers and once I made my grandma a quilt that she put in her local county fair (I found out when she sent me the ribbon it won, love her) but actually entering one of my quilts is a first!
