| Here I am, arriving at the quilt show. Okay, not really me, but it could be. |
 |
| I really liked this one. The colors really appealed to me. |
 |
This was cross stitched, then the quilting added. I liked the way the quilting made it look like snow on the ground. This was one of my favorites.
|
The next few quilts show what a difference color can make. Scrappy quilts where the design is made by positioning the darks and lights.
Tumbler quilt with no fabric repeats.
 |
| This is a mini log cabin. I want to make one. Liked the fabrics a lot. |
 |
| Scrappy again, with the stars made using lights and darks. |
 |
| A string quilt, again the pattern uses the juxtaposition of lights and darks. |
 |
| This is a Denver Log Cabin. The stars in the sashing are what differentiates it from a regular log cabin. I loved the blues and pinks. |
 |
| This is a self portrait quilt. Titled Please Eat a Banana, I'm almost Finished. Weird quilt fact - the poodle was made using hair trimmed from the maker's dog. |
 |
This is my favorite of the show. It is a duplicate of one that the quilters mother made in the '30's. This quilt was made using 30's fabrics, plus fabric from each decade since then.

I had a nice time looking. I entered the drawing for the raffle quilt, which is very pretty. Also had a card stamped by each vendor, and that went in a drawing for "prizes". Didn't specify what. I didn't buy anything, which is good, since I have too much already.
And that's what I did today.
