| L to R, yours truly, Diann from little Penguin quilts and Sharon Engel, award winning quiltmaker |
Through blogging, I have met some mighty fine and fun people, and here are two of them.
The picture was taken by Sharon's husband at the outdoor quilt show this past weekend in Berthoud, Colorado.
Diann blogs from littlepenguinquilts. We met she and her husband on a trip to Boulder last Spring and have a lot in common. She's so easy to be friends with! We walked around looking at lovely work, some we'd like to try, some we just admired.
Sharon is an award winning quilter, freshly back from Paducah show where one of her recent quilts was shown. What a fun person to know! She was with her husband and daughter, and we all got along famously! Sharon has jollied me along this move, listening and making me laugh when I was closer to tears!

Milo gave them both two paws up!
Tired? When we all went separate ways mid day, we continued on to town for a rest

I like old homes too, especially this little house now a barber shop...
look closely... think it's haunted?
We all liked the Italian Ices
MILO: " is this what you've both been eating while I have kibble?!!! Wha' the heck! And why didn't you get me one? Not one of the kid size y'all got, I mean POODLE sized? What are you thinking..."
ER, maybe we won't let Milo speak at the moment... I've heard people say they wonder what their dog is thinking... not me... from what I hear in my mind already.
I'll finish my likes with this flamingo-in-a-stump, of course!
I like the sweet icy stuff, and watching kids at the pool...

I like the santa quilt too... although we have a heatwave outside ;O)) and Milo and his new friend look great together ;O)
You have such wonderful towns to visit in your area! An outdoor quilt show? Score. Great post-thanks for sharing it with us. mary
Fun to see the things that caught your eye in Berthoud! I thought you would like that little town. Hope moving is going smoothly!
So much stuff to see! What a wonderful day.
Looks like you had a wonderful time and how fun to meet up with a couple other quilters!
Looks like a fun outing for all of you! Where my daughters live, the city pools have a "doggie" day at the end of the season where people can take their pets and only the dogs get to swim in the pool.
The outdoor quilt show made me miss the Quilts & Vines show that used to be held at a local vineyard in the area. The quilts were hung out in the vineyard, among the grapes. It was so much fun.
I just meet a new friend, Deanna, who has a quilt blog I follow. How fun you three quilters could get together. I like outdoor shows. I have been to Sisters and it was awesome!
Those roses are beautiful! So glad you got to meet up with quilty friends- that makes things so nice!
What a fun outdoor exhibit. You know, I've never been to Berthoud! Guess I should take a ride up there and check it out.
So glad you were able to get together with Diann again. And maybe flamingos are not as unique in CO as you think.

You always seem to have such a fun time on your out n' abouts and find so many cool things! Sorry you couldn't swim Milo! Thanks for joining the Thankful Thursday Blog Hop!
I would have LOVED seeing all those quilts! I need to find out if there's a quilt show in my area. Love being inspired! Hugs!
I LOVE quilts! I have several that my grandmother made. She was very talented. Thanks for linking up today and have a GREAT weekend!
Oh the quilts. Quilts rock and I'm so glad people are still making them.
Milo seems to have had a red letter day. Good job.
Have a woof woof Thankful Thursday. My best to your peeps. ♥
You did have an amazing time, I loved seeing the quilts, thank you!
Thank you for sharing your visit with us! It was wonderful to see Diann and all the quilts! Thanks!
What a fun day outing!

I finally managed a post, but very late. http://sandysnowden.blogspot.com/2018/06/thankful-on-friday-instead.html
The quilts outside look wonderful. I guess they are confident it won't rain. I am glad you met up with Sharon and Diane. You look very cute in that photo!
I like looking at old things, too. They are very tempting to buy, but then you find there isn't actually room in the house to show them off.
Not sure if you found this there in Colorado, but when we were living in Minnesota one summer for my husband's job, we went to an antiques place and were amazed at what they called antiques. This was compared to New England where I grew up. Things people in New England still used! or, if not in their house, in their 'camp' - cottage by a lake. Cooking utensils with wooden handles - antique?
Milo sees the neatest things
I would have been thrilled to visit there! SO many treasures. ♥
I don't think I have ever seen an outside quilt show. I guess they were confident the weather would cooperate? We've been having some cool weather here, but I don't think that would stop me from enjoying an Italian Ice! Enjoy your week ahead!
Milo is sooo beautiful as are the quilts ~ Milo steals the show, though,
Happy Day to you,

So manny beautiful quilts, that was quite a show!
Thank you for sharing at The Really Crafty Link Party. Pinned.
That looks like a great way to spend the day - an outdoor quilt show, and fun things to check out in town. Looks like Milo enjoyed himself too!
Pity poor Milo...!
Such an adventure you three had. New friends, old houses and, to me, the best of the 60s. For a while, as they built a new house, my parents had an outdoor stove. When we moved inside, we still had to chop wood because we didn't have electricity yet, and Mom made all our meals on a wonderful old black potbelly stove...true fact. Of course, we were halfway up the mountain then. It's all been built over now. Now and then we'd go down into town for groceries and whatnot, and I remember the soda fountains with those red-topped stools we could spin around on, until Mom made us stop!
Ah, the good old days when I was young. Now that I'm old myself, I try to keep my adventures young.

How fun that the three of you got to meet up and enjoy a quilt show. You had a lot of likes this week. Milo - I think they should let you swim in that pool. You poor fella.
