Ketchikan's Annual Quilt Show

The "Rainy Day Quilters" guild held its annual quilt show on February 20, 2010, at the community center in Saxman. It was an incredible display of (local) talent, artistry, and inspiration. We look forward to attending the quilt show every year. These photos give just a small glimpse of some amazing quilts.

Beaautiful sunrise or sunsets...or lilies in a pond (wall-hanging).

A fabric village scene.

Little boy blue...fishing (wall-hanging).

Children's quilted jackets.

Fishing in Alaska (wall-hanging).

The stitching on the back was just as interesting as these blocks on the front.


What happened when Santa and his reindeer went to a photo booth...
(This photo of the wall-hanging is three photos pieced together)

A wonderful little backpack (batik fabrics)

Beautiful circles of blue quilt.

(detail close-up of the quilt of circles of blue)

Another circular design - very bright and colorful.

The warm earth-tones were wonderful in this quilt.

Wow! Thanks for posting these. I always enjoyed walking around and looking at the quilting show. (I usually carried something to catch the drool coming off from my chin as well). This way I can drool in the privacy of my own home!!!
