This past week I taught at a nice little show in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. They hold the show every year in March. You can find out more about the show at www.mountainquiltfest This was the 19th annual show. Next year for their 20th year they will have everything in one location at their new convention center. This year and previous years they had to split the show between two locations. If you have never attended and decide to do so you will be in for some real southern hospitality.
This quilt was made by Molly Mills from Rolla, MO. The name of her quilt is Prairie Stars. Molly won first place.
Pamela Mann from Elliston, MO made Stars on A Bed of Feathers. She won 3rd place.
Early Morning Run won 3rd place. It was made by Jennifer June from Whispering Pines, NC.
Lorilynn King won 2nd place for her quilt called Botanical Fantasy.
Grape Arbor was made by Peggy Garwood from Fairfield Glade, Tennessee.
Here are some shots of my students hard at work.
I saw a couple of interesting signs at this show. I must admit I have never seen these signs any place else.
As the story goes…….. someone actually ironed on the walls a couple of years ago and it cost the organizers a couple thousand dollars for the repairs!
I always think the only reason they have to hang the signs is because it happened at least once before. Interesting.
Talk to you next week!
