So, where have I been?????

Well, I've been here.  Just haven't been blogging.  We will discuss the reasons why some other time. But, anyhow, here I am now.
I made the above miniature quilt for The National Quilt Museum's auction next month.  The quilt is 7" square, the geese units are 1/2" x 3/4" and it is made with fabrics from the last quarter of the 19th century.  It is a color scheme that was popular with Mennonite quilt makers at that time.  It is one of those color combos that you will either love or hate.  I love it.  It is really nice for miniatures, as there are no prints to muddy things up - just solids. It is made with fabrics from the quilt top I purchased at the AQSG Seminar.

It had some bad stains on it, although they are not shown in the picture.
Well, I hope to deliver my miniature to the museum tomorrow and say hi to the Yo-Yo Ladies. It is always fun to visit the museum.
Take care out there in quiltland.
Till next time...
Sheila

The geese miniature is a beauty. And you parted with it for a good cause.
I wish I could be there to see this little gem! I surely hope all is well with you Sheila.
