Special Exhibits at the Faire

Image
We have lots of special exhibits to augment our general exhibit of quilts.  This exhibit of "Mini Quilts" was really fascinating! The two quilts below were all of  5" x 7"  and  4"x 5" respectively.  And Hand quilted! These little 'rooms' were amazing, all perfectly to scale! Some quilts were really pieced and quilted and some were printed on cloth and quilted and a few were simply photo copied onto cloth, such as the Pickle Dish top that yousee in the lower center. When I came to this picture I thought 'Wow,  look the mini quilter even made a mini of our PVQA banner'  and then I realised it was a picture of our Bed Turning!  I had to laugh! But with the small picture of the old iron bed frame against the plan background it really fooled me! The Bed Turning is another exhibit that is a big hit at the Faire.  Two shows both morning and afternoon Sat. and Sun.  Quilts, sometimes vintage, sometimes contemporary...
