A good day at the Guild Quilt Show

 

I've posted this Pineapple (Zippity Blue Dah)  previously -  won a First Place - I'm happy!  Note there are 2 separate blocks, altho the only difference is in value placement.

This QOValor has also been previously posted - won a Second Place - I'm happy!  I used bits of my deceased husband's shirt in this quilt.  I had also MADE that shirt, and cutting it up was not as emotionally easy as I had heard.  The recipient is someone my DH appreciated, so that will help.  

60 degree triangles, and a copy

 

Top one, all sandwiched and ready to quilt.  Above is one completed years ago and given away.  I liked the first one so much, I made it again, almost the same. These are equilateral triangles altho the triangle border was done with a Tri-Recs ruler because I had misplaced the 60 degree ruler.  Duhhhh, but it works just fine, but don't forget which is which.  

I have no idea how life became so occupied that it's been 2 months since my  last post.  Quilt Show preps, plans and sign-ups for next year guild obligations, range fire concerns due to terrible drought,  yards and garden improvements, picnics, family emergencies and  happiness, just like everyone else, life goes on.   

Our Guild Quilt Show is winding down during nearby town celebration of Oregon Trail Days and I'll pick up my 3 quilts tomorrow, bring them home.  I've shown them all on this blog.  Then we hang them at our local bank for Heritage Days.
