Two Bees

We sure did enjoy the Sulphur Springs quilt show last weekend.   The quilts were beautiful and we met some new quilting friends in East Texas. 

   

I must share with you this beautiful quilt that won Best In Show!   It is called "Perseverance" and you can see why, 10,509 hexagons and all hand pieced  by Linda Neal.   I spoke with her a bit at the show and she said it was a great take along project which she worked on everywhere she went.   The hexagons were English Paper Pieced and it took her 2 weeks to remove all the papers.    The quilting which was done by Jackie Brown is exquisite and compliments the quilt.

I'm sure we haven't seen the last of this quilt,  it has many ribbons in it's future.
