The bright pink crab apple trees in front of our eQuilter offices are just starting to open up, so if you live in the Boulder area I suggest you place an order this weekend, and pick it up next week so you can enjoy a whole block of shimmering apple blossoms when you visit! Maybe bring a picnic for our front lawn too? It is the next best thing to a Sakura Cherry Blossom Festival if you don’t live in Japan<\/a> or Washington DC<\/a>.<\/p>\n

My next trip is the SAQA conference “Fiberlandia” in Portland Oregon<\/a>, the end of this month. I will also slip out to visit family in Portland, and of course will enjoy the incredible blossoms of Oregon this time of year. eQuilter is a proud sponsor of this event, and I am always excited to reconnect with so many talented quilt artists.<\/p>\n

At last year’s SAQA conference I gave a presentation on the Andover fundraiser collection “Urban Textures”<\/a> which we are still selling at eQuilter. It features the artwork of 6 talented artists<\/a> in 3 distinct color stories, and all royalties from this group go to support SAQA.<\/p>\n

This organization puts on some of the most amazing art quilt exhibits around the world<\/a>, so we are delighted to support their efforts!<\/p>\n

My next lecture and power point presentation on “International Quilt Trends” is on Saturday August 8th at the Festival of Quilts in Birmingham UK<\/a>. Hope to see our European friends and customers at this show!<\/p>\n

\nApr 30 – May 3 – SAQA Conference in Portland OR<\/a>
\nMay 15-17 – Quilt Market
\nAug 8 – “International Quilt Trends” Lecture at Birmingham UK Festival of Quilts<\/a><\/p>\nShare Post:<\/strong>
