I spent a few days in Sunriver this week and flew back through Portland. Imagine how pleasantly surprised I was to find a small quilt show in the Alaska Airlines terminal!!
This might be my favorite because of the pieced background!
Even her dress is pieced! Here is a close up:
The other side of the corridor had modern quilts:
All these are interpretations of the bridges of Portland, of which there are many!
Finally home tonight in time to have the kids for the weekend! Woohoo!!
Sewing next week and retreat time... Details to follow!! Not going to wisconsin though!
I saw that when I flew back fro Guatemala! Was in too big of a hurry to take photos. I did see the bridge exhibit at a quilt show and it was wonderful.

Hi! A friend sent me a link to your blog. I'm so pleased that our "blue" show brightened your trip through the Portland airport and even more pleased by your kind words about my quilt, "First Day of School: New Blue Dress"!

ReplyDeleteI heard there were quilts at the airport - from my GS. He flew on Alaska Airlines home from college over the holidays. Very neat! I really like the on of the girl!
ReplyDeleteI loved this exhibit, but didn't have my camera/phone handy as we walked down the hall. I did make my guy stop and spend a few minutes viewing this terrific display. I thought it was VERY well done
