Hour Glass wallhanging

 My quilt guild is holding a quilt show this weekend in Mebane, NC. Opening day is tomorrow, Friday, Oct. 21st.  I spent the day today volunteering at the quilt show, helping hang quilts and working on the programs that will be handed out to each visitor.  I love quilt shows!  A lot of work goes into organizing and planning.  

I entered a small wall hanging, which won a ribbon for Honorable Mention!
