Yesterday I went to the Packwood quilt show with my friend, Phyllis and my husband. The day couldn’t have been nicer for a drive. There were a little over a hundred quilts. This show is put together by a few interested ladies–not even a real quilt guild. They do it on the even numbered years and do a quilt retreat on the odd years. I was again amazed at the variety and quality of the quilts. This show will be moving to October in 2014 with the retreat in October 2013.
There is also a new quilt shop in Packwood. It is located inside the liquor store. I didn’t write down the name of the shop, but did find out that it will be open 10-6 seven days a week. So if you’re going over White Pass make time to stop.
