Amazing! I can't stop looking at it. I have never seen the boxes where they look empty. Truly a work of art and your blue ribbon is well deserved.

Gorgeous! Can you find the 108 multi-colored squares? Don't let the cubes fool you! They are made of diamonds!

The show was in Medford. Not a real small show, but not a real large one either. We had the gym, the cafeteria and the commons of the high school hung with quilts, and there were about 40 venders. We had about 50 sewing machines on display: from 1861 through the 1990's. Tried to have at least one from each decade, but missed 1930. Eight of them were mine. I had to show people the second spool in my Eldredge Two Spool.
