Sights of Ohio- Photo Heavy

We went to Chesterland Historical Foundation open house and living history day while I was in Ohio. Everything was so green and the beautiful white and brick buildings were amazing!


Quilts on display throughout the buildings.

We also hit up a few antique stores while we were in the area. 
Simple, but I love the split purple and pinks.


 Ashtabula Harbor
 This area is where they have special events.
Gotta love a patriotic barn!

 This has been called the smallest covered bridge in the USA. (note the quilt block )
 Another gorgeous covered bridge.
 Lake Erie
 And one of our more unique stops! Who knows what a perambulator is?
It is British for a baby carriage or "pram"! These two twin sisters have this home (neither live here)  filled to the rafters with amazing buggies, dolls, textiles, trains, sleighs and so much more! It was the most unusual and fascinating museum I've ever been to! It is in Jefferson, Ohio and the link is HERE.

These next 2 photos are not in Ohio, but on our way back from Rochester we made a quick jaunt to Niagara Falls! These aren't the best photos, but hey, I never claimed to be good at selfies. LOL



This quilt was at a vendor booth in Rochester so we bought the pattern and are sharing fabric to make a memory quilt and give us a big variety. It was designed by Tara Lynn Baisden and is called Brick Wall of Wabash County. She reproduced it from an antique. I was happy to review a book for her and can say her directions are spot on and thorough. I appreciate that with patterns.

Thanks for coming along to Ohio with me virtually!
