It was a Wonderful Day

This is Carol Maslin's time and Seasons from Piece Makers. It was one of the hits of the show. Carol and her sister Eleanor Lindow are skilled applique artists. From where my sewing machine was I could see people stop and study the quilt for a long time. Carol embellished the quilt with a bell on the church steeple, buttons and other materials.
This is the beautiful raffle quilt made by our members and raffled to raise money for the Triangle Fire Department. Gladys Hamilton was the winner.

We do a raffle quilt every two years for the fire company's benefit. This is a Disappearing Nine Patch.

I keep thinking of all the fun I had yesterday sewing and meeting folks. It's Old Home Day at its finest.
We are holding a vest making class with Barbara Ackley on November 6 at St. Patrick's Church in Whitney Point. I ordered the Carol Doaks Reversible Vest book.
Thanks to all of the Triangle Guild members and to Mary Hibbard who coordinates the Fall Festival events at the school for their work in making our show a success.
