Greetings Quilters and Quilt Admirers! Welcome 2020! As most of you probably know, our dear friend and knowledgeable leader, Cathy Wiese has retired after “20 years” of dedicated service toward making our Walla Walla Valley Quilt Festival so successful! We look forward to visiting with Cathy at our upcoming 2020 show. But, I must say, the greatest success of our show is achieved by You! When we see the amazing quilts you bring in, the smiles on your faces, the chatter and laughter among you and with us, the fact that many of you stay for hours, taking time for lunch, and even return another day…just warms our hearts! Thank You! Who Am I?I am Cathy Spanish. I joined the WWVQF in 2015. I have lived most of my life in Walla Walla. My husband Michael and I have been married for 50 years. We have 3 children with 3 spouses, and 6 grandchildren…so I have lots of quilt making to do! We are updating the festival website, so you can read all about our festival team as quilters.
