The July block is a priority
and here it is........... Yummy watermelon.
I am very busy at this time getting all the t's crossed and i's dotted for our quilt show due to begin July 27th.
What a great write-up, Joan - thank you for taking the time to post so many pictures. It was a pleasure to visit the shows with you, Anna,Clara, Barb, and Christina.
ReplyDeleteBelieve it or not you were with us all day. When we talk quilts we talk Karen Neary. About the Diamonds Are a girls Best Friend, about the free motion and the Fibre Arts Festival in Amherst all these discussion made for a pleasant drive.
DeleteThanks for sharing all this beauty, Joan. It's always so much to attend a quilt show with quilty friends. I'm going to one next week, and I can't wait! I'm really trying hard to get better at quilting, so I plan to concentrate on studying how other people choose to quilt their projects. Oh - and maybe visit the vendors?!?
ReplyDeleteIs it ours in Saulnierville that you're visiting ? Some day I am certain I will see you walk in the doors of the church Lol . It is so much fun to visit quilt shows with a bunch of ladies who quilt. We have so much to share. Hugs.. Enjoy your show.
