EUREKA!!

Well I am back from a great holiday!  Myself and family and friends headed down to Eureka Montana for a much needed vacation.  The weather was a little unusual for that area.  It is normally very hot and dry there, but they were actually getting rain!!  The day we arrived, we stopped for groceries at the local Market and the fellow working there said to my husband, "were you here for the big rain?".  We had a good chuckle because I don't even think they got a 1/4" out of it!!

This past Saturday I attended the Annual Eureka Montana Quilt Show.  As usual there were some amazing quilts for show and sale. I am constantly amazed at all of the unbelievable talent far and wide.  I already can't wait for next years EMQS!  The shops that attended and set up booths had some great little finds......I probably spent more than I should have, but hey.....it only comes once a year!!



This was one of my favorite quilts in the show.
It was all appliqued and quilted by hand.  A beautiful piece of work! It was hung sideways on the
building, oops!

As always when you leave home for a week, the weeds grow.  Tomorrow my day will be spent working in the gardens trying to get ahead of the weeds!  Not sure if this is possible, but I will do my best.  Hopefully I will get a chance to do a little quilting too.  

Until Next time
