Abingdon Quilt Block Party

If you love quilts (who doesn’t?) and you want to see some beautiful quilts, please go to Abingdon’s Quilt Block Party. There are about 20 businesses participating by displaying quilts. I went to Light’s Mill.   Love that place.

Light's Mill

I have two quilts in the party, but I wasn’t sure where they ended up. As it turns out, they were at Light’s Mill where about 100 quilts are displayed. It’s a great place to display the quilts. There are lots of pictures with this post. That’s my Harvest Spice quilt below taking up a lot of room. It was a nice surprise to find it so easily.

      Deborah…thank you! I haven’t been good about updating my blog as often or reading other blogs lately. I’m going over to your place right now to see if there is a cup of tea! 🙂

      They are beautiful. My hands ache when I think of all the stitches. This year’s Mendota Cemetery quilt is going to finished next week.
