Except for a few older things and the newest ones that are committed somewhere else (like &#8220;Splash&#8221; which was sent off to AQS Paducah yesterday), I had little available. I decided since there was no age limit, to see if they had room for &#8220;Seahorses&#8221; which had never been there before. The new show opens tomorrow, with First Friday this week from 5-8.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ruthpowersartquilts.com\/weblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Seahorses.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-3097\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ruthpowersartquilts.com\/weblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Seahorses-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"Seahorses\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ruthpowersartquilts.com\/weblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Seahorses-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.ruthpowersartquilts.com\/weblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/Seahorses.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The quilting is finished!
