For the last few years, DH and I have attended the Communtiy Quilt Exhibit at The Art Center in Blue Ridge and I have said I wanted to enter a couple of my quilts. Well time always got away from me and I never got my quilts entered. This year I vowed that things would be different. I have not one, but four quilts in the show, I am so excited.

I love the "old timey" look of this quilt.

This one is mine too!! I made this one four years ago, I started it the week before I had a hysterctomy and finished it during my recovery. I was unable to walk down the steps to my sewing room, so I had to go outside around the back yard and walk in the basement until I could do steps again. This is DH's favorite quilt in the show.

The photo doesn't do this quilt jsutice, it was really striking in person. |

This is mine, also. It is one of the first quilts I ever finished. I think it is where I got my love for start quilts. (Have you noticed that all of my quilts in the show have stars on them?) This was also the first quilt I made from batiks, they really didn't photograph that well.

Cute basket quilt. This one was completely done by hand, the stitching was incredible on it. |

Lots of tiny half square triangles. |
If you are in the area please stop by there are a lot of wonderful quilts in the show. It has even been extended to July 21.
