Well on Friday I received an email from a gal interested in being a vendor at the show. She is from West Union and she has a shop called "Moonlight Stitching Studio & Sisters Retreat". It sounds neat. As I understand she has taken an old building in town and gutted it and has a long arm there and space for quilters to set up and sew for a whole weekend! She also has a full time job, thus the Moonlight Stitching name. Those quilters just love their hobby and will do it when they can!!
I am toying with the idea of having quilts that have been done by Dorthy Van Brocklin come back to the show with her to be the feature artist this year. She has hand quilted hundreds of quilts for other people she is in her late 80's or early 90's and has such a lovely spirit. She has many other talents too if you were at the show two years ago she was crocheting rugs from scrap material. Very interesting.
I'm liking the idea more as I talk about it.
I'll will work to keep everyone posted :-)
