10 Days until the Art & Ag Tour of Hickman County of which we are stop number #26. Click here to get more information and a map of the county for a two-day self-guided tour through, what I consider, to be the prettiest county in Tennessee.
10 Days until May 23 & 24.
10 Days of late nights, finishing projects, labeling, cleaning, and sitting up.
And we are still thinking of things we would like to make for the show! Once we get started, it's hard to stop the creative juices.
We...it's a family thing. Sally, my daughter and I are doing all the sewing, arts, and demonstrations. Ken, my husband, is cooking BBQ. Courtney, my niece, is serving as our bouncer, serving as the guide for the in-house quilt display. Adam, my son, has been told he must be there, at least Saturday to help us out with the hundreds of people we are hoping turns up.
And next door, my brother and his wife are doing the same thing.
The needles have been busy around here...until tonight!
After Sally spent the day getting several of her projects finished, the main sewing/quilting machine gave out. So it's off to the repair shop for a little oil and cleaning. We've been making it work so hard. But it has to hurry back, because we only have 10 days!!!!
Here's a sampling of some of the things we've been working on.
Cards.
Needlework.
Memory Quilts
Wallhangings
And quilts.
I'll be giving quilting demonstrations using my grandmother's quilting frame, so I still have to get a quilt ready to go in the frame. Plus I'll have some of my legacy of quilts on display. Oh, I've got to get busy labeling them!As a final project, I'm making bags. The logo was Sally's idea to incorporate all that we will be doing, not just at our stop on the tour, but my brother's too.
Hope to see you in about 10 days!!!
