Her husband, Greg, came also. He would hang the quilts as Pat shared with us. He hung all the quilts in perfect order. Maybe one or two upside down but he did a great job. Here he defending himself.
Here are some more of her beautiful quilts. She now does them in machine applique which means she can make lots more quilts. She brought several of her newest books which you can see here.
Yesterday I took her machine applique class which was a lot of fun. I have done machine applique but going to a class always brings new helpful information that makes the technique a whole lot easier. Pat has pictures up on her blog already of our class, so check it out sometime. I worked on a tablerunner/wall hanging. I will show it as soon as I get it done. I just need to make the stems and then sew it all down. Pat is a great teacher, very friendly, and of course very talented.
Thanks Pat and Greg for taking time out of your busy schedule to come to our guild.
With Passion,
Carrie P.

I like the last quilt you show. I wonder if Pat has a pattern for it. I don't remember ever seeing it before.
I imagine Pat is lots of fun too! How wonderful to see her quilts in person and be able to take a class from the very talented lady!
Sounds like a fun time. The quilts are gorgeous!
Thanks for sharing your pictures. It would be wonderful to take a class with her. I can't wait to see your project :0)
What a fun day you must have had!
I agree, even though you know how to use certain techniques, it is always good to get new tips!
Oh, how lucky you all were!! Loved the photos. I'm working on a machine applique wallhanging and it's not as easy as it looks! Patience is a virtue! Can't wait to see yours! ~karen
Oh Carrie, You lucky duck!!
How fun is that, Carrie - I really like her style, she's one of the first quilters that I found. I would dearly love to go on her Ireland adventure....
Thanks for sharing, sounds like you had a good time and learned alot.
Carrie, how cool that you got to meet Pat Sloan. It is because of her that I started appliqueing and I have many of her designs on my wall.Actually, the 1st quilt you show, Times Remembered hangs in my sewing room.
That is so exciting! She would be so awesome to see and take a class with!! Can't wait to see what you worked on!
Looks like you had a good time and also learned a lot of useful information. And I'm sure seeing Pat's quilts in person was a treat!
What fun and so much inspiration!
Lucky you having that show and tell. Pat has done some gorgeous quilts.

How much fun that must have been, Carrie! Pat has so much energy - I sometimes think she never sleeps!
Cheers!
Great show & tell I love all of Pat's beautiful work. It's always fun to have a famous person come and share their gorgeous quilts.
I'll bet she was a fun speaker! And all that eye candy... awesome! The class sounds great too. I look forward to seeing your class project (and hearing about any tips you might have picked up along the way!). :)
Carrie,
I'm jealous! I'd love to take a class with Pat. Which do you prefer to do-hand or machine applique? As I get older, I'm thinking I'd better practice more on the machine!
Can't wait to see your class project.
Coming out of lurckom here! lol I so enjoy taking classes from various quilting teachers. I do not fret anymore about finishing the project. I just want to be there and enjoy their company/energy! Pat is such a wonderful lady. Would love to have a class with your. Thank you for sharing!
