Quilt Show Categories

Here are the last of the quilts from the Ava, MO Quilt Show.

The first category was sponsored by the local newspaper, The Douglas County Herald.  

Their category was "The Town Crier, Read All About It."

This first quilt was my favorite!  The low volume fabric looks like faded newsprint and the town crier was appliqued on.

This next one had some fabric with cat themed newspaper articles.  She made this quilt for her cats and it has minky on the back.

 I love the bright colors of this one.  The main fabric is a sewing themed newspaper page and all of the other fabric has letters on it.

 This one also has newsprint fabric and is "What is black and white and read all over?  A Newspaper"  It won first place in this category.

The next category was "Wild About Animals" and sponosred by an individual, Caryl Stillings

This quilt has animals machine embroidered on it.

 I love the window pane look done with this horse panel.

 This 3-D zebra makes me smile!

 This quilt was done by a ten year old!

 I love the teddy bears!

 This next quilt is mine and won first place in this category.

 The last category was "Country Homes" sponsored by United Realty Company.
This quilt really does make me think of country homes.

 I love the redbud landscape quilt!

 I love these different houses quilt, what a fun idea!  The outhouse is my favorite!

 I love the MO map!

 The last quilt is the barn quilt it was the winner of this category, it is also my quilt.

I'll have to post the mini quilts in another post!

I look forward to our quilt show every year!  You will have to look at my previous two posts to see the rest of the quilts!
