Pickles Quilt Show

I attended the annual neighborhood quilt show put on by the ladies of the Pickles Quilts group - an event I look forward to every summer. Here are a couple pictures, but for even more please go visit my friend Clydene's blog where she shared every quilt that was displayed. This group of ladies choose a quilt pattern, then they each make it using their own colors & fabrics - so fun to see how they're the same & different. Joy's beautiful yard is the perfect setting for this fun day.




I think the pattern below - called Swoon - is what I'll be using to make the wedding quilt for my son and his sweetheart. With nine giant 24" blocks it seems very doable to me.

What a delightful quilt show! My goodness, those ladies really crank out the quilts, don't they?
Swoon would be a good choice for a lovely quilt in a hurry! : )
