In August I entered a few quilts in a show/sale in a neighboring town. I was told people come to the show specifically to buy quilts. There were both contemporary and antique quilts on the walls and draped over the pews in a quaint little church. I'll start with the antiques which were not priced.
Well, I just about melted when I saw this 1840 Oak Leaf and Reel with a Prussian blue border!
There was some damage in the border with batting poking through in more than a few places.
How about this Album Block signature quilt with poison green sashing and turkey red fabrics?
Ohio Stars and 9-Patch blocks in an interesting layout.
My Call Me Crazy quilt was displayed on the altar--and it sold!
A wonderful quilt made from shirtings--all recycled.
A ladder display of smaller quilts three of which were mine--2nd and 3rd from top and the one on the bottom.

On another note . . .
I started making some small journals. Here is the cover of my Christmas journal made with index card dividers.
Will show you more next time . . .
