Chris and I met up this weekend
at the annual Davies Manor Quilt Show.
Here we are standing in front of Manchester to Memphis,
the quilt Lynne made for me earlier this year.
Create With Abandon was there . . .
. . . and so was Bless Her Heart.
Love the juxtaposition of such a traditional design
between two much more modern styles.
There were two Railroad Tracks quilts,
both done in Civil War reproduction fabrics.
This one . . .
. . . and this one.
(inspired by the same vintage quilt as my Leaf Peeping flimsy)
Memphis now has a Modern Quilt Guild.
This was part of their display.
(LOVED seeing Word Play Quilts!!)
They also had a sewing machine set up
so people could try their hand at piecing an improv block.
Down the lane at the Manor House,
I fell in love with this vintage beauty.
Then this one caught my eye from across the room.
Timeless in design and color --
and you simply HAVE to read the quilt's display tag below:
Why we make quilts!
Another scrappy vintage beauty . . .

To the volunteers who organize and staff this show,
THANK YOU!!
