I have some fabric......




.....to give a way.  Be the first responder and I will place them in the mail to you.  norma@timelesstraditionsquilts.com


These are twelve layer cake size pieces......be the early bird, and don't forget to include your address.


Every two years there is a quilt show and auction to raise money for healthcare.  I attended this past Friday evening, and $143,000 was raised toward this goal.  Included in the event was a scrumptious dinner.  The quilts I am showing were in the silent auction.  There were 82 hand quilted quilts, and most of these were in the live auction.  The table where I was seated was so far away from the auctioneer and the quilts, that I was unable to get photos.




I was definitely charmed by this quilt, and it has given me an idea of how to use my box of neck ties.


Part of the border included these labels.








A second picture to show the corner detail.



Keep in mind that all of the quilts in this show are hand quilted.  One spectacular quilt which I did not get a picture of went for over 
$20.000.



I will have more to share tomorrow.  On Wednesday I will have the monthly drawing.
