Wish You Were Here

These quilts represent a current sample of the fine work being executed by quiltmakers of the Pacific Northwest and Western Canada.

Wish You Were Here... was a traveling exhibit of 46 quilts by APNQ members. Representing each quiltmaker's unique voice, these quilts traveled across the US and Canada for two years. These quilts were auctioned at the Gala Dinner and Auction in August as part of Quiltfest 2006, with all proceeds going to support APNQ programs.
