My Quip – A Splash of Color, Quilt Show, Cabarrus Arena, Concord, North Carolina – Our Entries – Born This Way, Provence

Good Evening,

And if you are in the Concord, North Carolina area October 7th and 8th make sure you stop in on the Cabarrus Quilters’ Guild 2011 Quilt Show, A Splash of Color.

The Cabarrus Arena in Concord, NC is just 2 ½ hours, by car from either Asheville or Raleigh, NC. It is almost 9 hours from Wilmington, Delaware… and just over 10 hours from Tampa Bay, Florida. And if you feel like driving from Toronto, Ontario, we’re talking 13 hours. Might be a nice weekend jaunt?

We’ve entered two of our quilts for display in the A Splash of Color Show: Born This Way and Provence.

Born This Way has been entered into the “Splash of Color Challenge” category.

Provence into the “Bed Quilt – Pieced Traditional – Large” category.

If you do get a chance of attending the Show, we would certainly appreciate copies of any image or photos that you may happen to take.

Stay tuned for our progress.
