Now I Feel Like Making a Quilt!

2008.09.26













My friend Marsha [aka Queen911] talked me into going with her to a quilt show put on by the Mississippi Valley Quilters Guild.

There were over 400 quilts on exhibit and I wanted every one of them. Several reminded me of my grandma and how I loved to sit on the bed and just look at the fabrics (all old clothes) that composed the quilts she made.

I've made a few quilts in my lifetime but nothing as beautiful as these. And mine all wore out after daily use. I don't know the secret to making them last generations!

DancingDolphin I love quilts also! I have some I've made and some my Grandmother made. Honestly, I don't think they DO last generations if you use them. But what good are they if they're not used!?!

busybee36 Quilting is my other hobby so it is great to see these. I love going to shows and seeing other peoples work. #8 is probably my favourite, so colourful.
