    Went to the quilt show in Winterset yesterday. They also had the Covered Bridge Festival going on.

    This is my favorite one. The pic really doesn't do the purple justice.

    I seen this pattern on the internet and was planning on doing one myself...only in blues and white.

    Can you see the quilting? It has the 'WOW' factor!

    This one had a neat story. The womans mother had made all the Sue's in the 1950's using her clothing.

    There was some that the guild had made for NICU.

    Just as we walked in the woman at the desk was telling someone that Marianne had just left. I seen her at the shop on Friday. And Liz at the Quilt Expo Saturday. So I didn't feel bad that I missed her.
