I made it to the quilt show and did find a parking space this time. They had many, many lovely quilts on display. They were beautiful. I forgot my camera too!! Such work!! I am a loss for words really. I loved them all. One was of Jesus and it was gorgeous!!!
I was good and didn't buy much. I got one applique pattern, Poinsettia Passion by Krissy Brawner from www.quiltcountry.com and bought a one yard cut of fabric plus four fat qtrs from www.contemporaryfibers.com in black background with blue, purple and white flower prints and bugs.
On the way home i stopped by JoAnns fabrics and spent a 40% coupon on a set of Aunt Millie's Garden -12 flowering blocks by Becky Goldsmith and Linda Jenkins of Piece O'Cake designs. they show the appliques done on red background and they look wonderful. I may do the same when i get around to buying all that red fabric. the quilt is to be 75x75 inches. Both applique patterns are easy ones.
not bad for an out of work quilter!!
