Well, I survived the weekend. We had over 75 Adult entries for quilts, Teen and Youth were about 15 entries, and the Other Fibers were about 40 entries. I didn't get the People's Choice Award but I understand I missed by only one or two votes. I entered Mickey's Crown Royal, Garden Impressions, Buttons and Squares, Harvest, a Rag Quilt, A Strawberry Picnic, Harvest Time Table Runner, the Brown X-Bag, and a Tooth Fairy Pillow. And sold a pillow while I was there. There were several beautiful quilts on display. I demoed the Disappearing 9 Patch, learned how to do a Log Cabin quick cut. I was also able to cut, and prep 2 tops for quilts, and prep another at home. I did learn however that the next time I am involved in the Show- I would like to see things organized differently. When we have our next meeting I will voice my opinions. Even so I had a good time. Emily really helped out when it came to setting up and tearing down.
Ashley helped Erin move the last of her belongings on Saturday to her house in Butte. Saturday night we found, of course, that she had still left behind some things.
Now I'm off to clean the basement so I can move my sewing stuff downstairs again.
On my agenda for the next few weeks is to make 2 batches of Apple Butter, Tooth Fairy Pillows (as I sold what I had), Salts and scrubs need to be made. And of course the 3 quilts I started need to be completed. Guess I better get started. Oh, and I was asked to make something for a bake sale tomorrow.
