Birds of a Feather!!!

HI everyone! I have been on the road these past several weeks, only being home for a week, then hit the road again. This is definitely quilt show season! Speaking of quilt shows, I thought I'd share that I was featured last week. Here is the link:

Now Birds is not a quilt show, it is a learning experience!! All classes about longarm quilting. There will be some vendors, but the focus is all longarm quilting.
Last week I was in Chattanooga!! At the AQS Chattanooga Quilt show!! It was wonderful!!!
Here are some pictures from the week, we had a wonderful time!!
I was playing with Innova longarm sequencer attachment! Love it!!

This was my favorite quilt from the "Special Exhibit" room. I thought this Cow quilt was hilarious!!

Ok, this was our waiter at the restaurant Sugar's. It is a southern BBQ, so you have to know what real BBQ is to understand. I got kick out of his shirt!

Don't we all feel this way?!! LOL

She found her Triangle!! LOL

These were on the sidewalk outside of the Chattanooga Convention Center

 


This hallway "seamed" to get longer each day we had to walk it, LOL beautiful building!

The view from my room. See the blocks?

My quilting buddy Jill standing on top our tables. She was installing the light bar. Yes, you can stand on top of our longarm machine tables, they are that strong and stable!

I bought these "real" cowboy boots!! Love them!

Me trying on different boots

I got to sit on a Harley!!!
If you follow me on Facebook, you will see videos of Jill and I: The Escapades of Jill and Nancy. Go see them!!!

AQS Chattanooga!!

What an adventure Jill and I have had getting here. My husband and I began the journey from our home in Clarkston, MI....the trip to meet Jill in Toledo, OH should have only taken us about 1 hour and 45 minutes......it did not! IT took us well over 2 1/2 hours due to rush hour traffic in Detroit...which we could not figure out! UGH! What was the back up!!? No one knew or could figure it out.
Once we met Jill in Toledo, we were off on our adventure. Hubby went back to Michigan to work and Jill and I headed south on I-75. We made it to Cincinnati and came to a stand still....there is always construction going on in Ohio!! Do they ever get it right where they are not tearing up a road over and over and over again? It was unreal! I've been traveling through Ohio often lately and the road construction is never done!
We encountered torrential downpour in Knoxville, it was raining so hard Jill could not see the road!

Today, we are going to get ourselves ready and head on over to the convention center here in Chattanooga. We have to set up our booth "Accomplish Quilting Innova Longarm Dealership". Come on over and see us this week. The quilt show is open from Wednesday to Saturday at the Chattanooga Convention Center.
