I went to Trenton, Florida today - where there is a Quilt Museum and there was a Quilt Festival. It was a beautiful day and was so cool to see all the quilts hanging throughout the small town. The Quilt store was packed and DH had been so good letting me look at all the quilts, I didn't buy one thing!!

And then there were a couple of very interesting items. The first one is really made of square blocks. What a cool idea making the strips lopsided. Even DH had to go up to it!
The second one reminded me of SewBiz's quilt - the choir made out of crown royal material.
the third was part of a very intense busy quilt and I wish I had this insert.
Hope you can all expand them

Made a couple of ties today. The green and yellow one is for my husband, the other one is for an older brother in our congregation. It is a surprise for him.

Terriamn - here's a "Borrow and Lend" block for you. Glad I got all the waves wiggling in the same direction!
