Quilt!Knit!Stitch! Portland 2014


Quilts Inc. held the first Quilt!Knit!Stitch! Show in Portland, OR in mod-August, 2014.  If you are interested in any of the needle arts, there was something for you.

Quilts:







 
 
Wonderful exhibit of children's clothes from Switzerland:
 
 
 
Jewelry:


There was a terrific exhibit of Kaffe Fassett Sweaters I must not have gotten a photo of--loved them!

Each day at 1 pm there was a Style Show that was very popular.  The garments were different each day and professional models walked the runway.  Garments were on display on the show floor, different garments each day.


Diane Kimono Dress, Serendipity Studio, Kay Whitt, designer


Great vendors:

Superior Thread


Patterns for sewing/needlework bags
 


The Education Team at our Community Garden



Big shows like this don't often come to the Pacific Northwest.  If you are anywhere in the West, plan to attend next year, August 13-15, 2015.   
 
Three of us stayed over a day to see some of Portland: 
 

At the lovely Rose Garden in Washington Park


Everybody has to do Voodoo Doughnuts once!
Hope to see YOU in Portland next year!
 
Let's Quilt!

  2. It was a colorful show for sure. Next year there will be more classes and more variety. One of our teachers for this year has decided to move to Portland from Denver since she and her assistant were there for the show. It's definitely a city to enjoy if you love arts, entertainment and beauty.
