Guest - When I got Cheryl Lynch's book 'Quilt Fiesta: I was excited to open it up... her book is based on mexican tiles and she has created some wonderful designs for the book. Then I got an email from my friend Betty suggesting I might want to talk to 'her friend Cheryl that just wrote a book'.

Guest - When I saw Laura Peterson's quilt 'The Quilt Show' on the internet I was so captivated by it. At 108 x 30 it sure makes a statement! Laura's here to tell us about the quilt.

Nothing to do with the radio show but I just wanted to comment on the FTC post on the left of your blog. You always put a very funny spin on everything and I really enjoy reading and hearing what you have to say FTC or no FTC.

Fantastic lineup. I am interested in Jean new book and the color paks.

a question for Ms Wells,
could she reflect upon the regional influence of
setting on the choices quilters make in terms of color in fabric, combination of colors and prints, historical reference or not, and
even the size and weight of the quilts? what would she say is characteristic of Oregon quilts? for example,
in Vermont, the show was full of quilts with green
(so many greens in the mountain trees) and browns
(Vermont has fewer days of sunshine than other state,
but stunning vistas). and obviously, travel and life experiences of the quilter plays in. The exhibit
of Vermont quilts from the Vermont Historical Society
was a study in regional influence. Also does Oregon have a Historical Society with a large quilt collection and where is it shown/exhibited?

Sounds like a great show. I've been to Jean's quilt store and left with huge bags of goodies, but I've never made it there when the show was happening. That is a dream for the future!

It has always been a dream of mine to go to the Sisters Outdoor Quilt Show in Oregon. I would like you to ask Jean Wells the following: How do they decide which quilts go where, and did they ever have to cancel the show because of weather? Can't wait to hear your show today, Pat.
