Catching Up

Last week end was the Davies Manor Quilt Show.
I had five quilts in the show but was out of town so didn't see the whole show.
I took these photos during the set up earlier in the week.


My mini, Memphis #3, is the middle one on the left column above.
Most of these mini quilts were shown at the Cotton Museum in October.


None of my minis are in the photos above and below.



My Memphis #1 is the 3rd down on left column.
Memphis #2 is 2nd down on the middle left column.


We went to Foley/Fairhope, Alabama last week end for a 50th anniversary celebration of my friend Becky (Rebecca) and husband Jimmy. Their younger son Frank and his wife Amanda arranged the surprise party. 
It was lots of fun to spend time together. Becky and I were in Sunday school 
together when we were very small.
So many memories.


I made two of these little mug rugs to commemorate the day.


I took these two small quilts but wasn't sure if Becky & Jimmy were quilt people.
The quilt above I called 'Which Way Up'.
I made it to be a sleeping bag but changed my mind.
It was done as a Sew Along during the pandemic.


This one was made from my mother's fat quarters that I always admired.
Making this pattern was like putting a puzzle together.
I called it 'Helen's Flower Garden'.
My mom grew lots of amazing flowers and loved to share them.
She also had a special place in her heart for Becky 
and I know she would be happy for her to have this quilt.


This week I finished the second Silent Night felt play set.
This is actually the first one. I will post a photo of the second one next time.

Happy Sewing!
