AQS in Paducah.......

AQS in Paducah.......
It's hard to believe it was already a week ago!
I had so much fun visiting family in Kentucky, and going to the show with my cousin Phyllis!
I am taking this week off from the QOV Block Drive to share with you some of the goodies, old and new, I was able to see while in Paducah!

While my dad and cousin discussed antique cars.........
And, my Momma toured the Amish with another cousin........

I went to browse some antique malls and saw some of these beauties!
Enjoy the antique quilt show and tell me which is your favorite?

 I LOVE THIS QUILT!  This is my favorite!
It looks so modern, yet it is very vintage!
Any clues as to the name of this layout?  It appears to be some "Drukard's Path" blocks to me?














I was able to take my cousin Phyllis to Eleanor Burns' "E" Quilt Show!
We had a blast, and I think I have converted my cousin into a quilter!


And, here come the show quilts!  Granted, these are just some of my favorites!
There is a large variety of quilts from modern to traditional!
Have you ever entered one of your works in a show?
I'm curious.........
What are some good reasons, and not so good reasons to enter your quilt in a show?
























 My friend Ann's quilt, "All My Rowdy Friends", received an Honorable Mention!
WAY TO GO ANN!!!!!!











 This is one of my personal favorites!  I LOVE the colors and those eyelashes!












Well, what did you think of the show?  I hope you enjoyed it as much as I enjoyed sharing it and seeing the quilts with you!  I will be back next week to share with you more blocks received from the drive, as well as information about our wonderful sponsors for the prizes of the drive! (My apologies if you sent in blocks this week, you will definitely be included in next week's post!)

Thanks for all of the encouragement!
Keep on a quiltin'!
