Continuing with the quilt study museum....





Representing a gentler time.......and what tiny waists they have!



There was a huge exhibit of Mountain Mist quilts.  I have many of them to share with you.


When I first started quilting, it was Mountain Mist Bats that I used.
 And inside each wrapper there was a quilt pattern.




Not only hand pieced, but hand quilted.





This quilt was completed all by hand also.







So clever how they have used the rick rack in this quilt.


It is time for the second Wednesday drawing.  the 3 names selected are- Susie Hoover, Barb Cole and Victoria Cloud.  Email me with your pattern selection and please include your mailing address.

  1. These are really unusual quilts. I like the shadow trail the best, and the rickrack is inspired.

  3. I remember those Mountain Mist batts and the patterns. These quilts are a sweet display of quilter's work from that time. Really lovely!
