My mom won ribbons as well. One 1st place and three 2nd place ribbons, including a 2nd place for her baby quilt entered in the Oldest Quilt department. Not that she (or her baby quilt) is old.

Fri, 18 May 2007 18:34:40 GMT http://www.quilt-pictures.com/quilts-blog.html#Fabric-Organizers I was reading the current issue of Quilter's World Magazine and they had a short article abut a new thing called The Fabric Organizer. It is basically a smaller version of the cardboard that bolts of fabric come on. They are made of plastic and have small tabs to secure the fabric. Since they are 14" tall, you can store them on a book shelf or in a file cabinet drawer. You can also hang them from a hook through the hole at the top of each one. You have to check out this great new way to keep your whole stash neat and organized!

Thu, 29 Mar 2007 14:25:47 GMT http://www.quilt-pictures.com/quilts-blog.html#Barn-Quilts While reading a magazine in the doctor's office waiting room, I read an article about a group of people that are painting giant quilt squares on barns in Grundy County, Iowa. Sometimes they are painted right on the barn, other times the pattern is painted on a plywood square and then mounted on the barn. It is all done through donations of time and supplies. Hmmm I wonder if my husband would like a quilt square on his shop?
