On May 1 & 2, 2010, The PineTree Quilt Guild will be hosting our 26th Annual Quilt Show. Our guild, located in the
beautiful Sierra Foothills, was established in 1984 and has close to 300 Quilters whose members include a creative and
exciting group of Traditional, Art/Contemporary, Junior, and Hand quilters.
In order to accommodate a steady growth in
membership, last year we expanded to 3 buildings so that we could have room for the over 350 quilts shown. We also have
Silent Auctions, a large Country Store, Baskets, Vendors, Demonstrations, Door Prizes and more. Also, while you are
here, don’t forget to participate in the Annual Treasure Hunt for kids of all ages!
Many of our visitors come from all over California, Oregon, Washington and Nevada, and we would love to see you! We are
right in the middle of the Gold Rush Country, Sacramento, the State Capitol of California, is down the road and it is
only a couple of hours drive to either Beautiful Lake Tahoe or Reno.
So please mark your calendars and make plans now to come and enjoy yourself in “SPRINGTIME IN THE PINES”.

Paducah, Shelburne Farms, and the San Jose Quilt Museum have all charged me admission to view their
wares. Judy Speller’s entire home is likened to that of a museum! We raced pell-mell from one exhibit to the
next, claiming authenticity from antiquity, from one ornate glass showcase to the next.

Judy can mentally recall
and precisely document their genesis, their fiber content and construction. Many likenesses of her
delicate treasures have been photographed and dated within her collected texts. Judy concluded
her estimated antique quilt count at “50 completed
quilts, 88 tops, and 15 uncompleted tops”!
She has lovingly restored some chosen treasures
by painstakingly clipping off flowered appliqués
from their badly soiled base and appliquéing onto
a similar clean and fresh block. Judy’s cup runneth
over.
