Community Quilt Show

 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 is one of mine!!!  The pattern is Glory Bound from Red Crinoline Quilts.  It is one of my all time favorite quilts.  This was also a Silver Thimble Kit

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.

Pumpkins and Crows

Several people had emailed me asking about the pattern for one of the quilts from the Mountain Holly Quilts Show. The name of the pattern is Pumpkins and Crows, it is available through Log Cabin Patchwork in Hiawassee, GA. I believe that it is one of their original designs. I am looking forward to getting mine made for next fall. Happy Fall.
