I just got back from visiting the Frontier Culture Museum in Staunton, VA. They have a quilt in a frame, and I got to add my stitches. Saw some quilts at New Market Battlefield, too. I had a great time with some great ladies.

i got to quilt a few stitches.

It's been many years since I was at the Frontier Museum, on one of the hottest days that year, LOL! Thank you for reminding me of it, got to go back soon, as obviously much has changed.
