TCQC quilts at Back Porch Fabrics PART THREE 05-12-19

These are the three Linda Colsh quilts from TCQC that were at Back Porch Fabrics in Pacific Grove, CA during the Empty Spools Seminars (Feb - May).  The picture I took of them hanging in the gallery did not turn out, so these are taken some years ago. 
The exhibit was titled "People and Critters" and these three all have people and one critter. 
The rest of the quilts that were hanging are shown in my blog for 05-1019  and 05-11-19.

TCQC quitls at Back Porch in Pacific Grove 05-10-19

Here are pictures I took at Back Porch Fabrics in Pacific Grove, CA, just before we took the quilts down.  All the tables were moved to the middle and all the merchandise put under the tables or in another room.  It is a big job preparing for the quilts, hanging them, and taking them down when the exhibit is over.  Only to clear things out to hang the next exhibit.  Gail Abeloe, shop owner, and her long time employee Jeanne Mills do a great job getting interesting quilts for their customers to enjoy.  It is always a good experience in that shop, my favorite of all time!
