Friends! I’m thrilled to share that I’m the poster artist for the 48th Annual Sisters Outdoor Quilt Show. What an honor!
Since moving here a few years ago, I have so loved this beloved event. Imagine an entire little town covered in artistic quilts and thousands and thousands of fabric artists / enthusiasts in town for all the quilt showings and festivities. It is a HUGE, if not THE highlight of the year here in Sisters, Oregon. As an artist, I find it wildly fascinating and inspiring. It makes me want to learn quilting, which I intend to do!
When the incomparable Jean Wells , who founded the quilt show almost 50 years ago, called and asked if I’d do the poster this year, I could hardly believe it!
Of course, I said an enthusiastic YES and went to work on creating an image that included the Three Sisters Mountains that our town is known for. It was a wonderful challenge, as I don’t normally include mountains / trees in my work. I loved how it turned out and am so honored to be a part of such an iconic event.
Big love, Kelly Rae
