County Fair Time Surprise

Fair Time is always hot and always interesting. Usually I hang out with my friend Jen but she was off on a family vacation so I had to look for a sub. I found Eddie on the second day of the fair.  He was a bit boisterous but generally a pretty good guy. He was a blue ribbon winner so we had much to talk about. 

I entered 5 of my quilts in the fair and somehow I won with them all.

 This is one of the quilts I sent out to be quilted so I could give a QCR trunk show. Haley Schober from Omaha quilted this for me. 

This was just crazy!

Next stop this quilt will be entered into the state fair. I will update after that happens. I am not sure it can compete with some of the fantastic and creative quilters out there but it is going to go and see what it can see. 

Urbanologie is a pattern by Sew Kind of Wonderful using their Quick Curve Ruler. Here

In the mean time I am going to fondly remember the good times with these guys.......

and this cool muscial fairy garden.
