National Quilting Day

I thought I would share National Quilting Day by showing you pictures from our trip last week to the Sewing Expo.  Lots of pretty quilts on  display that have been touring the US.

The show was held at the Lakeland Convention Center, and let me tell you, the place was packed!





We could not get into some of the vendors booths when we first arrived. But after our second go around things thinned out - a little.

And then there were the quilts -












It was a very nice show, but boy were we tired when we got done.

Enjoy your Quilting Day!!  Celebrate by QUILTING!!!
