Last week was the AQS quilt show in Paducah, KY. The weather was raining off and on, the water was rising and the floodgates were closed on Monday, the show will go on. The Main Expo Center is on the wrong side of the flood walls, I have no idea why it was built on the wrong side but it was. Anyways AQS really scrambled to move quilts and get vendor"s spaces all ready I congratulate them for a job well done. We moved in on Monday and the closing of the walls didn't effect us any or any of the shops downtown. This show was the best I have done in Paducah, everyday sales were up and I went home a very tired happy camper.
Today it was time back in the studio, I got a quilt quilted for a client, it was a Relay for Life quilt, I quilted and bound it. It will hang in different places to raise money for such a good cause.
Tomorrow I will be quilting another quilt and Wednesday we leave for KC for another quilt show. Another busy week here at Mamaw's Handdyes.

Paducah and Mandalas
I leave on Sunday to go to Paducah, KY for the big AQS show I am vending at again this year. This show opens on Wednesday but I'm downtown in the Finkle building where the hurt books are and we open on Tuesday so I have an extra day to sell. I'll have handdyed fabric, snowdyed fabric, snowdyed mandalas, one of a kind fabrics, commercial batiks, stencils, ironing boards, books, patterns and much more.
My friend Kay Sorensen blogged about my snowdyed mandalas and gave a few ideas of what to do with them. Check out her blog at http://quiltspluscolor.blogspot.com/2011/04/snow-dyed-mandalas-paducah-quilt-show.html for some great ideas.

Getting ready for Paducah
This week I'm working on getting the last of the things I need ready for Paducah. This little quilt is an appliqued piece that I would like to finish today, I think it is a little lopsided and needs another flower on the right, maybe just a little yellow one will do in the hole. What do you think?
