SweetOldBob's Quilt

On Saturday I coerced Bob into going to the quilt show. Here he is standing beside his quilt. I think he enjoyed seeing the quilts and watching people.

The top picture is of a donation quilt top that I assembled. It only had eight sailboats so I needed to make four more. Luckily I found the pattern Lil Skipper in a magazine. I used the boat pattern and added a border. Those four sailboats went in the corners of the quilt. Some little boy will like that one.

What a lot of pre-planning goes into a show. Committees meeting right up to a few days before the show. People bringing the quilts from the place where they are gathered and sorted. The coordinator telling us where to put each bag for those hanging the quilts to put them up. Each bag has the number of the quilts inside which corresponds with the floor plan. Demonstrations, publicity, signs, gift shop, Quilters Walk. So many contributions were made by so many. It's the guild's best show yet.

Watch our site for the videos of demonstrations. Kim set up a camcorder by the demonstration area.
The Chenango Piecemakers

Today is the last day of our show. On Thursday night we'll have a guild meeting and find how many attended and Viewer's Choice in various categories.

Back to housework for a while today.
