A Show Of Quilts

It's a one Bee show, my Bee! One of our members, Nane, sits on the board of the Yadkin Cultural Arts Center. Through her connections, and hard work, there is a quilt show hanging there right now, it is open to the public through the end of the year. The center is located at 226 E. Main St. in Yadkinville, North Carolina; if you're in the area stop by and also take in the display of handmade Santas in the adjoining gallery. The quilts are all done by our small group, "Miss Bee Haven", these artistic and creative women are some of my closest and dearest friends. Our core group has been together for about ten years. It was absolutely thrilling to wander through this beautiful new gallery (and multi-use facility) last evening and see our quilts on display in all their glory! Take a minute, sit back, and enjoy the show!

Life is Good!

Oooh, such wonderful eye candy first thing in the morning. I LOVE it. And what a beautiful venue for the quilts.

Love the new blog header. I've love to know more about the quilt on the far right. Hannes looks quite handsome on that gold quilt -- it really brings out his beautiful color.
