The fair starts on August 4 and I have entered quilts for several years (except last year). I love the quilt you showed made with vintage embroidered linens. I have a friend in Texas who made a quilt similar to that. I love vintage linens! Didn't you enter a quilt? What about the state fair? I might enter something in the state fair too - haven't decided yet.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11912222251238739813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7554378824181841688.post-18312768634102567622021-07-24T06:49:14.711-07:002021-07-24T06:49:14.711-07:00I am going to our county fair next weekend.

I've had lots of funnel cakes over the years. The fair around here is jam packed with crafts, and you only get to see part of the quilts or other crafts each year (all folded over and layered over each other). Not worth the effort to fill out all the paperwork to enter (very difficult rules to enter).

My dad loved the county fair and we'd go to the one on Cape Cod, esp to see the [baby] animals and the quilts.Lizzy Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13925662100321427762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7554378824181841688.post-41795516611419920912021-07-23T08:49:16.184-07:002021-07-23T08:49:16.184-07:00We used to live in a less-populated county, and I ...We used to live in a less-populated county, and I did enter things in Open Class there. It helped that my kids were in 4-H for several years and so they were entering things too. And we were only 45 miles from the state fair location too so we attended. However, the county I live in now is much more populated, but has a less active county fair. In the 15 years we've lived here I have not entered anything. I tried to get info on entering things in Open Class a couple of times, but didn't get much assistance.

Sadly the area where quilts are shown is not at all secure and last time we went some of the quilts were left folded on tables where anyone could touch, spill food on or even walk away with if the lone attendant was distracted. I wish they had a better facility in which to display quilts, they would undoubtedly get many more entries. Always fun to see the animals and their young owners caring for them, best part of the fair!Quilting Babciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16225825007525655805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7554378824181841688.post-13320217736912931112021-07-23T07:20:45.863-07:002021-07-23T07:20:45.863-07:00Love the pics!

We will again not have a County Fair this year due to COVID. :(AnnieOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06619125197850685345noreply@blogger.com
