Quilt Fair

Last weekend there was a quilt fair downtown.  The quilts were just fantastic.  Here are some of my favorites:






Last night I went to the second quilting class at the community college.  There were about 18 ladies there. We had moved to a new classroom that had more room to work, but there were only 2 electrical outlets.  Not enough for all of the sewing machines.  The teacher showed us how to cut squares using a mat and rotary cutter.  I made nine  4 1/2 inch squares in several colors and headed for home.  I will sew them together later and create the nine square pattern.

The quilt fair was so inspirational.  Now I just have to figure out how it is done.
