Seeking Spring in Wells, NV

Last August as we strolled through Vail, CO I received a call from Wells, NV.  For those of you that don’t know this, I was born in NV, just down the road from Wells, NV so when I saw this town pop up on the caller ID I answered.  And to my surprise it was a member of the Humminbolt Quilt Guild asking if I would come teach.  I said that sounded like fun, when were they thinking?  She said February – I said REALLY?  It is cold there then!  She said, yes, it would be very cold and they would be very tired of the cold by then and a quilting class would be just the ticket to “Beat the Winter Time Blues!”  We decided on Total Eclipse for the pattern and in February I found myself headed west on I-80 after flying into SLC, UT.

The members of the Humminbolt Quilt Guild were fabulous and we had a great time!  Here are some photos from the workshop!
