Sauder Village 2010
Okay, so I'm a little behind. Finals and all that. I snagged this picture off of Ruth's blog just because I wanted to have a record of our annual trip to Sauder Village. It is always such a great day.
My sister drafted and appliqued a mallard duck block for Deb's block exchange bird quilt. Chris, I thought you might enjoy seeing these geese.
I loved this folk art applique quilt. See the rooster in the bottom row? One of his relatives may find his way into my "chicken quilt". I've been gathering fabric and several ideas have been incubating since December. Black, white, yellow and red polka dots. Stay tuned.
This Piece-O-Cake-esque applique just seemed so fresh to me. Ideas for wool applique maybe?

Thanks, Lisa, love the photos. Are you still doing wool applique? I haven't since I moved, but miss it & want to resume. Phyllis
Phyllis, I bought a wool applique pattern for a sewing kit (fold-up purse, pockets, pin cushion, etc.) when we were in Chicago. Last night I almost finished one of the pocket flaps - it's sew much fun! Check out Sue Spargo's blog for some great wool projects and cool travel pics too.

When I saw that Civil War Bride quilt on another blog and read that it was going to the Sauder show, I knew it would be a standout there. How nice to see it with a ribbon on it. (It's the folk art appliqué quilt)
Here's Teresa's post about finishing her quilt.
