Another top done and an auction to tell you about

Good day, all.  Well, I got another quilt top done yesterday and I'd love to show it to all of you.  This one is the t-shirt quilt for my youngest son.  He travels all over and has collected quite a few shirts that he's nearly worn out.  He brought me the t-shirts in June but I couldn't get to working on it until after the elephant quilt was done.  It's ready to go back to the winter house now and be quilted on the LA.  I can't give my featherweight up here enough praise because she sewed through different layers of t-shirt and cotton fabric like she was using a hot knife to cut through soft butter.  It was SWEET!



And, I thought I'd tell you about an auction my hubby saw in his auction paper this week.  It's located in Clare, Mi so I can't go.  Well, I could but I don't want to drive 8 hours there and  8 hours back.  But for some of you it wouldn't be such a difficult hike to see a bunch of featherweights, lots of quilting fabric and books, quilting frames and other quilting stuff get sold. You might be able to take home a treasure or two.  I don't have a clue what things will sell for.  I never know what people are willing to pay at an auction.  But if someone gets to go, let me know how you faired out. The date is Saturday, Sept 29.   Here's the link:

It's turned pretty chilly here in the northwoods.  A friend over in Wisconsin tells me we might get a snow flake or two on Thursday.  Brrrr!!  I guess it's time to go back to SE Mich.  I'll get to see so many of my quilting friends down there.  That's a good thing.
