Apparently I’m all post-o-matic today.
I promised more quilt photos so… here we go. I had a series of “favorite” quilts as I went through the show. This quilt was one of my early favorites when I walked into the show. I love the different prints used and the lines… and the colors… and yeah. It’s a very striking quilt - traditional without being all country and flowery. There were some beautiful traditional and flowery quilts as well, but this one is far more to my taste. The sheer variety of the quilts on display was staggering.
Stamps going up: By the way, if you haven’t heard, the cost of a first class stamp is going up next week by 1¢ to 42¢. That means if you buy a Forever Stamp right now, it will gain value almost immediately. If only I didn’t love the variety of stamps out there… I’d buy a ton of Forever Stamps! But alas, I love putting different cartoons, flowers, cars and animals on my envelops depending on my mood.
