Superstition, by Stevie Wonder! If you can see it in the right closeup, I quilted black cats in the border. I wanted to do 13 but there wasn't room for the size cat I used.
Our Bee made this quilt as a surprise for the center director, he was quite pleased. I always like to see how, when we each do a block that's not preselected with no other guidelines except the size, how they all come together so well into one quilt!
The crowds were a little thin from previous years, but everybody who came had a great time. There was music, dancing and bingo (I think) inside the center, a sound stage outside, and plenty of food. The kids were having a great time on the moon bounce.
Our first visitor...
Our uninvited visitor...
And a horse named Ceasar ...
You can't see it, but he's wearing a cute little police department badge around his neck. But you can see his big feet:
I thought Clydesdales were used primarily for draught horses but he's a police horse. With feet that large he can do pretty much what he wants to, I reckon.
We had a "quilt airing" of course, here are a few shots:
Patty K's Old Tobacco Road came out nicely |
Here are a few of the other Motown quilts:
ABC 123 (Michael Jackson); The Tears of a Clown (Smokey Robinson); not sure of the third one - WeeBees, help me out! |
We also had Zentangle demos - Yetunde makes it look so easy!
Charlene caught on quickly!
A lot of my quilt pictures came out so fuzzy I didn't want to use em; what's up with my camera? Anyway, that was my version of yesterday, hope you enjoyed it :o)
Thank you for sharing. I did indeed enjoy it.
ReplyDeleteI really liked your Motown quilt! I also liked the first one, too, though! Even your "mistakes" are better than my finished pieces!
ReplyDeleteI have to ask about the "uninvited visitor." Is that a child's toy? It can't possibly be a real bug, can it?
Looks like a wonderful show, a lot of talent on display there!
