Quilts at the Fair!

Jane and Astrid entered quilts in The Fair.  Guess what?!  They both won first place ribbons, and Jane also won a bag of batting.  It was so fun looking at all the quilts. There are so many creative people in the valley; especially quilters.

Here is Jane with her amazing sixteen-patch on-point quilt and blue ribbon.  One of the remarks on her grade report was about the nice grid-work quilting.

Here is Astrid with her amazing Civil War nine-patch quilt, made completely with Japanese fabrics, and her blue ribbon.  The judges liked the Japanese fabrics.

We also ate caramel apples and rode the Ferris Wheel.  Marsha took the photo, below, of the setting sun, while we were on the Ferris Wheel.  We were wondering if it was named after Ferris Bueller.  If I had a day off, I would spend it at The Fair.
