The Tyler Quilt Show

The other day a few of us "Wackies" visited the Tyler Quilt Show. The theme this year was "Hats Off to Quilting!" We, of course took the scenic route.....you had to be there. Anyway, we saw what Tyler is famous for.....it's beautiful flowers.....azalea and roses. Once we found the convention center, all was well. The quilts were beautifully displayed and there were plenty of vendors to relieve you of your purse.....LOL......The pic I chose to show is a close up of a form of a star quilt....note the simple block pattern and imagine the possibilities. Next, it was on to A Nimble Thimble's new address......don't ask me how to get there because I'm terrible with directions so my friends tell me........ The new address is 1813 Capital Dr. #300, Tyler, TX (903/581/4926)........Anyway the new place is much bigger and well thought out. One interesting thing I bought was the "Quilters Pocket Map of Texas"..........It has about 47 quilt shops all over Texas and a free pattern from Quilt in a Day by Eleanor Burns. Visit there website for more info or to purchase our own..... www.quiltvisionusa.com
