Off to Lincoln City, Oregon for an art quilt show

Anne has only one in this show, called her Bamian triptych, showing the Bamian Valley in Afghanistan before the Taliban blew the huge old Buddhas up. There is an artist's reception at 5 PM. We will stay in nearby Newport, Oregon near the ocean and will return on Sunday, only a two hour drive each way. It is quite rainy here and at the coast, so the two lane highways will be challenging, I'm sure. We will visit a couple of our favorite restaurants in Newport too. I hope everyone has a great weekend! How do i not have a photo of that quilt?

Oh and by the way it was the Taliban that destroyed them. Not that they are any better than IS.

Question: Did not understand if those are quilts in the pictures or paintings?
