I was very happy last Friday to cross the Tennessee River into Florence to partake of the Batting Brigade Quilt Guild's show.
I totally underestimated how many beautiful quilts would be on display and did not take an extra battery for my camera. I am so sorry to have missed taking pictures of some of the quilts...my apologies to those quilters!
This Alabama Quilt was made by the guild in the 1990's and has been displayed in Welcome Centers along many highways entering the state.
I loved seeing the peanut block...my mother's father was a gentleman peanut farmer near Goodwater, Alabama.
My new hometown of Tuscumbia, Alabama is the address of Helen Keller's home/museum, which is represented by the hand water pump.
I will let the quilts speak for themselves through the quilt labels. You will enjoy the homemade ribbons!
Uh-oh...worse than usual photography alert...this quilt was made by Betty Hughes.
Made by Susan Manno...
Now, go finish something!
Teresa :o)
