Greenville Quilt show

Here is where I spent my day today ...
A lot of friends, old and new stopped by to visit me at the Greenville (NC) quilt show.  We will be open again tomorrow from 10 am until 4 pm.


Someone donated a Victorian crazy quilt to the quilt guild and it was on display.  Apparently, it existed as a top only for many, many years.  The border and backing are much more recent additions.  The embroidery was intense and fascinating.  Here are close-ups of several of the blocks.  Inspiring!
      

   

  It's dated 1892!
