I didn't update last weekend because I was attending the Houston Quilt Festival. It was lots of fun! I got to spend time with my sister-in-law Kim and see hundreds of fabulous quilts! The exhibits were amazing! On the way home, I took a little detour and went to the
Texas Quilt Museum in La Grange. This was the first year for me to attend the museum, so I've missed many exhibits. I feel fortunate to have made it to see each of the exhibits this year. I love the museum, so I plan to make sure I see each exhibit in the future. Love, love, love that we have such a wonderful place here in the state! And to make it even more special, there is a great little quilt shop right next door! Unfortunately, I can't remember the name of the shop at the moment, but the carry beautiful yarn for our knitting friends too. Definitely worth checking out.
With all of my travel and starting to get the house ready for Thanksgiving company, I haven't sewn a lot on my blocks. I have basted quite a bit and was able to set out a small top to see what the quilt might just look like. I've concentrated on the miniature Kaffe Fassett top so that I can finish it in time for the auction at the quilt show in March.
Here is the photo I took this morning. Only two of the flowers are sewn together, so there's no telling which ones will actually make it into the quilt. Hope you enjoy it and I'll update next weekend.
