I loved that this one was not symmetrical! Rows do not always have to come out even!! They were trying to make a pattern with the dark blue in the center, but it didn't quite come out perfect. (I absolutely love that humbleness!)
What's not to love about prairie points?
And look at the awesome florescent paisleys!
My favorite thing about this quilt was the border.
Red checked on the right, tan stripes on the bottom.
Yellow checks on the left and tan stripes on the top. Too stinkin' cute!
The ties! Oh my goodness- Love them!
What a cool setting! I think it looks very modern.
A hand quilting demonstration by a sweet lady.
And a primitive stitched log cabin.
I saw recently that quilt appraiser and designer Sandra Starley wrote an article on log cabin quilts that you may be interested in seeing HERE.
Happy Monday!
Thanks for sharing these lovelies! Have a wonderful trip.
ReplyDeleteI didn't make it to Aurora this time. I wish I had, but can't do everything! You, however, can do everything it seems. Wow, you never stop, do you!
ReplyDeleteI visited Aurora Colony and saw some of their quilts the first year we lived in Oregon. Beautiful setting for an antique quilt show! The asymmetrical quilts remind me so much of my one true antique quilt picked up at an estate sale in the Willamette Valley, I'll have go get it out and do a little post about it, and link back to your post here.
