Ava Art Quilt Show

The Ava Art Guild Quilt Show is going on right now until August 24.  There are around 50 entries this!  The categories are traditional, eclectic artistry, and applique!  Here are the quilts that were entered.  Some are youth quilts.  I am very proud of my student for getting second place on her very first quilt!
One of the young ladies from the TOGA got first place.
Here is her sister's quilt.
Their older sisters and mom also entered quilts, hope I got them all right.
Here are the rest of the quilts!

This bowtie quilt was made from her husband's neckties!






























My quilts!  My grandmother made the Martha Washington Flower Garden Quilt.

 The hexagon quilt was hand quilted and my Route 66 quilt was pieced on a hand crank sewin machine and quilted on a treadle sewing machine.
I can't wait for next year's quilt show!  Every year it is around the third and fourth weeks of August and runs for ten days.  I hope I didn't miss any quilts!
