The fair entries must all be delivered to the fairgrounds by tomorrow evening,
For the last two weeks I've been trying to complete a lot of small projects.
All four of these baby quilts were finished since September 1st....I'm hoping that some of them will win ribbons. By Sunday night I should be posting pictures of and winning ribbons earned.

Very nice! I especially like the bottom right one. Which fair are you entering them in?

They will be entered in the Wainfleet Fall Fair. I would have like to enter some of them in one of our larger fairs, but our vacation made that impossible.

@Morleyhunt I would love to go to it, but I don't drive.

@BarBaraPrz no bus service. 
I'm so glad I learned to drive...I even though the thought of driving used to terrify me.

That quilt seems to be popular. It was a fun quilt to quilt...the printed panel, meant no assembly was required.

That seems to be the overall favourite...wait until I get them back from the fair. Sometimes it's not the one you think it will be.

@Morleyhunt The higher probability to get winning ribbons then. Good luck!

@sol_cee that's true...the more I enter, the better chance of winning a ribbon. Really, what I want is the overall points in quilting prize. It's a gift certificate to a fabric store,

F they are all candidates in different categories. I have at least two more baby quilts plus five full size quits entered in the fair. A total of thirty entries.

The one with the rings is a printed panel. I hand quilted it.

@Morleyhunt among the four, is that the only hand quilted? :)

@Lucky15 the top left is hand quilted...the top right is tied...the bottom left is a rag quilt...machine stitched...then all the seams are snipped...ever 1/2 cm...then washed to give it the soft fluffy feel.

@peachpurple thank you. I'm better off to keep quilting. The calluses are built up now.

@Morleyhunt sorr to hear about your fingers. Do rest since you had completed all of them. I must say that you are really professional in sewing

I like all of them, for different reasons. The photos don't really do them justice.

Out of 30 different entries I hope to collect a few ribbons...the one with the rings is a panel, hand quilted.
I refer to them as 'idiot' quilts...you don't need to think about them...all you need to do is quilt it. The 'piecework' is merely printed on a piece of fabric.

It's never to late to learn. I made my first quilt when I was 23 years old....my mother started to make quilts after her 60th birthday.
