The County Fair was this weekend. I am really proud of my girls for finishing their quilts. Maybe next year we can have even more items to enter into the judging. Taylor needs to finish her quilt and the boys each want to make one too.

Madeline's Purple/Black Jelly Roll Quilt - First Place 

Kristina's Brown/Pink Batik 1600 Quilt - First Place

This dress I DID NOT make...but I do love it. A friend of mine made it. It is made from selvages. I sooo badly want to make a selvage skirt. Wouldn't that be FUN!!!!

  6. Why yes Lisa...I would love selvages. 18" or longer would be fantastic!

  7. Is Devin's quilt made FOR Devin or BY Devin? Just asking because my son looks to be about the same age, and has just started sewing.

  8. Dayquilt...Devin's quilt was made By Devin...For Devin. It is certainly not her first quilt. She has been sewing with me since she was 4. Thanks for asking. Kristina
