T & C Quilt Show 2016

The Town & Country Quilt Guild in Joliet hosted a quilt show the end of April, beginning of May 2016.  I entered Blue Squares.


I won second place in the Small Quilts category.  I was later told that it should have been in the Art Quilts category.  That was very nice of Nancy R. to say that.  When I was filling out the entry form, I was doing it quickly and just looking at the size.  I forgot to take anything else into consideration - like original design.

Dillon also entered a quilt.  He called it Purple Mountains.  I entered a picture with his description.  Because of the picture of Dillon at the quilting machine, Dillon won third place in the Youth category.

Keegan also entered a quilt in the Town & Country Quilt Show at the Red Lodge Civic Center.  His quilt was really small.  I believe it was in a difficult place to see.  I did not even see it the first time I went through the quilt show.  I had to go back again to make sure I found his quilt to view.  Keegan did not win a ribbon.


I worked at the Trackside Quilting booth some of the time during the Town & Country Quilt Show.  Sue H. was also nice enough to let us stay at Lions Camp during the show.  It was pretty fun for the boys too.
