Well we thought we would post the quilt photos this year just like you would walk in and out of the rows. Everyone by now who has a ribbon of any color has told everyone they know - and they should be very proud of the accomplishment. And we like to think that by now all of these quilts have kept you warm on the bed, been given as Christmas gifts, welcomed a new baby into the family, and helped us all remember to thank a veteran. Maybe you have quilted the top, made lots more of the block that you entered, or if the quilt did not win a blue ribbon is set for its return for one more try this year. Every quilt was wonderful to see, brought smiles to countless visitors to the fair, and maybe started someone on their quilting journey. To us all are winners, all are enjoyed and we thank you for sharing them with us in 2025. Enjoy one more walk in the textile department!!
