Bulloch Hall Quilt Show Ends Today

The Quilt Show at Bulloch Hall ends today at 4:00 p.m.
You can purchase a CD of the quilts.  I took a few snapshots while I was there.
I love this string quilt.  The colors are soft and muted.
I was just loving the punch of purple in this beautiful quilt.
Here is an Around the World wall hanging.  

Below is a close up of Diane Berdis' quilt.  It is just so gorgeous!
My quilt is draped at the foot of the bed in the "Mittie" room.
The attendant said they had it draped better earlier in the day, but some folks were asking questions about the fabric and had wanted to see the back, so it got un-draped.  Here is a better picture taken in Mom's backyard (double click if you want to see it closer):

How many lives does Kitten have left?

I love my sweet Kitten.

I worked on the fan quilt last night.  I got two of the columns put together.
See the little bit of piping on the left.  I sewed that seam three times.  Once without the piping, then once without bobbin thread and then the final time.  I was up really late.
And there are things I would change, if I ever did it over.
And today we delivered Lilly to Bulloch Hall in anticipation of the show that begins on March 12.  This is the first time I've put anything in a show, and the first time, that I can remember, putting on a hanging sleeve. I made sure to put all the pertinent information on an extra label, since the quilt label only has my first name and the quilt name.  I can't wait to the Bulloch Hall decorated up with the quilts!
The basted center seam on the sleeve gets pulled out and then there is plenty of room for whatever hanging mechanism the show uses.  I was told Lilly will not hang, so I didn't need to do the sleeve for this show.  Perhaps she will hang somewhere in the future.
I hope people like her.
Kitten looks okay.  Right?
