Let’s Eat at the National Quilt Museum

I loved spending a couple of hours at the National Quilt Museum in Paducah!! One of my favorite exhibits was this one….

Part of my excitement was that my friend, Rosie, had a quilt in this exhibit….

“A Slice of Culinary Life” by Rosell Crockett

She used the Drunkard’s Path block to GREAT effect, and added cute sayings as well…

…..

“Who Wants A Slice?” by Julie Wells

She made good use of 9-Patches and “Wheel of Fortune” blocks to create this retro kitchen!!

…..

“Girl with a Pearl Onion Earring” by Lisa Arthaud

Lisa used so much imagination in this quilt….

…..

“The Great Escape” by Kathryn Wright

Just look at her use of “Courthouse Step” blocks for the basket….

…..

“Old and New, Borrowed and Blue” by Maggie Ward

I love the Double Wedding Ring designs, but what really caught my eye was the lace on the cake layers…

It added a fun touch to the quilt.

…..

“Vegie Salad” by Rachel Siegel

The clamshell blocks were hand-embroidered and added much texture, as did the detailed quilting.

Come back tomorrow and we will look at more of these quilts.

You DON’T want to miss the 1st-place quilt… it is OUTSTANDING!!!

Writing this post has made me hungry, so I am off to eat Indian food that my husband made for me!!
