A Look Back...


I wanted to post a few pictures from the 2022 Sumter County Fair.  I entered a quilt in the Fair and so did my youngest daughter, Brenna.   Brenna won Best in Show for Youth Quilts. 


 

I entered the Halloween Hoopla Quilt that I made.  I didn't win a ribbon.  The 2023 Sumter County Fair is coming up in October and we plan on entering more quilts.

The Summer is winding down and though I have been sewing, there aren't many pictures to share.    I have been sewing charity quilt tops and forgot to take pictures before I sent them out.   I decided that this year I would sew Christmas quilts for all the girls.   I have finished two so far and am waiting on getting them back from my long arm quilter, Joanne, and I will start piecing Kieran's Christmas quilt this month.

Kieran, my oldest daughter and I collaborated on making a quilt for her good friend Liz.   Liz loves all things green, so Kieran and I picked out the pattern and the fabric.   Then Kieran started her Occupational Therapy Program at South University and I had to take over the sewing and finished it up.   It is Bonnie Hunter's Pineapple Blossom pattern.   Here is a terrible picture - Somehow it was the only picture I got of it before it left to go to it's new owner:




The Sumter County Fair is coming up in October and youngest daughter, Brenna is working on getting her quilt finished.   I have finished piecing my Halloween quilt and now I am just waiting to get it back from my good friend who is quilting it.



Rachelle sent me a picture of it all loaded up.  :)
