County Fair - QUILTS

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.

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!!!! 

National Quilting Day at the Las Vegas Quilt Show

I spent National Quilting Day in Las Vegas at a Quilt Show! Here is a little eye candy for you! And, NO, I did not enter any quilts, although next year I hope to.

This was by far my favorite quilt in the Show...and it won Best of Show. The applique was all needle turned and the quilting all ruler work. Simply gorgeous!

This quilt is a Wedding Ring Star done in Southwest fabrics. Beautiful!

 This was a beautiful Drunkard's Path quilt that just caught my attention and would not let go! Love the colors used.

 Crosses...the quilting is simply to die for. And the micro-pebbling...OH MY!

1930's Explosion...A Very Sweet Quilt.  

And who doesn't just love a sampler?! And the applique...even better!
