PB Midwest

Last month some of the people who have been in the Fat Quarters and some honorary Fat Quarters friends packed their stuff and took off for the Lied Lodge in Nebraska City, Nebraska for a week of faux-PB-fun

The Lied Lodge is a great meeting place about an hour
 from the International Quilt Study Center and Museum in Lincoln, Nebraska.


Carolyn, the IQSC curator (between Georgann & Barbara here) gave us a wonderful tour of the quilt show and the storage area.

We showed her some of our quilts inspired by some of hers.
The one above by Carol and Bobbi.


This one by Judy S.

Carolyn & Bettina

We spent several days sewing and talking in a meeting room at the Lodge.
