Posey County Quilt show....

Saturday we went to the Keck Gonnerman Antique Machinery Association's 22nd Annual Show in Posey County, Indiana.  It also included a quilt show.  Here are some of the quilts.  I will not say anything about them....they speak for themselves.  Most are hand quilted and some are antiques.  A lot of nice embroidered tops and old fashioned patterns.

Absolutely gorgeous, Mary! I particularly love the embroidered and appliqued ones, and I know Mom would love so many of these too. What a beautiful quilt show! Thank you for letting me know you posted these!

I have looked at these two or three times...the fourth is my favorite of course...and I like the one that is laying on the quilting frames. But I would want a narrower binding.

And I think it is about the 6th one down...the zig-zag thing that looks like it is done in blacks and white...that is not my favorite but it is different and something I would never have though of...

Thanks for checking them out!

Marie: I was impressed by all the embroidered ones...very nicely done work. I don't have the patience.

Rose: The 4th one was the over-all winner and was very pretty. I like the black and white zigzag, too. That other one on the quilt frame...I don't like the colors. I would love to have a Drunkard's Path quilt more than anything, but would like better color than the one here...which is old and probably faded. I don't have the patience to make all the curved blocks that would be necessary, but think about trying some times.
