Texas State Fair Winner!!!!

The Texas State Fair is one of the largest in the country and is a lot of fun.  We always go to the car show, try the food winners (Deep Fried Cheesecake is my all time favorite), look at all the new quilting machines and walk about 50 miles around the fair grounds!

This year I entered a quilt in the State Fair competition and won second place.  Woo Hoo. The quilt is called Christmas Jars and it is quilted all over in gold thread.  The jars and the lids are zig zag and the white background is quilted heavily to give it a gilded look.

Charlie Brown Christmas

While browsing the Blue Ribbon Quilt Shop in Wylie, TX, they showed me Charlie Brown Christmas fabric.  I loved it!  The quilt was finished quickly and my friend fell in love with the quilt and bought it. 

I did manage to take a couple pictures before she grabbed it!
