----- pièce de ré·sis·tance----

Oh my, look what I discovered at the State Fair....
Quilts, Quilts, Quilts-on the walls, ceiling, and hanging from the rafters
Every size, shape and kind every color
I think I was in quilt heaven!

{ ♥ the inside border on this one..}

This quilter must crochet her flowers first then applique them on the quilt.

This one was crazy- it's called Masquerade-
see the little ladies in their masks-
look further to see the squares....

♥ it ♥ it ♥ it ♥ it
beautiful colors and design

Even an old baby bib had its place in the quilt world! How CUTE!!

This quilt was huge!
The most amazing thing is that each square was different and unique.
No two squares are the same
Go ahead!! - try to find two alike!!

Where are the squares? No squares here!OMG -- perfect point after perfect point after perfect point!

This next quilt didn't show very well.
Not much in color, not much in uniqueness,
but when you get up close, this is totally hand stitched.
Take a look at the white piece and see all those beautiful straight little lines--
all teeny tiney little stitches.
OH MY-this is one your great grandma would have made.
This may look like applique of fabric flowers, until...
you get close enough to see each flower is embroidered!

1. An outstanding accomplishment:
Award winning and most gorgeous thing I've ever seen
Again- no two squares are the same.
a little close up look.

I just stood there for about 20 minutes looking at all the stitching and was amazed.

Such Talent!!
[IDK- Maybe I should give up even before I start]
New hobby- quilt shows.
