The first weekend in June I hit the road to go visit Kathy and help her start the finishing on the wonderful Etui I shared with you during my last blog post. Saturday morning we met up with Beatrice and went to the Trenton Quilt Guild's annual show. It was a spectacular quilt show, they certainly have a lot of talent, it almost makes me want to take up quilting... almost. I have inherited a huge stack of quilt tops from my Mum that I should finish someday. I know I could pay someone to do it but that just feels wrong.
Here is a sampling of the quilts that caught my eye!
The following weekend my friend Tracey and I decided to go check out the Carp Farmer's Market. Another opportunity to make good use of my lovely camera. We had a gorgeous day to be out and about!
Local Strawberries - I just got to enjoy some yesterday!!
I LOVE Sunflowers
As you can see the Lupines really caught my eye!
That's it for now, I'm hoping this summer I'll be motivated enough to share more of my adventures with you.
What an amazing quilt exhibit.
