Mountain Quiltfest 2012
This was my 5th year to attend Mountain Quiltfest in Pigeon Forge, TN. There were several Possum Town Quilters who attended this time. My first class was "Feathered Stars" by Nancy Mahoney. I finished my star since I've been home and am debating on how I want to incorporate it into a quilt. I've got some ideas floating around.
The next class I took was a two-day class taught by Annie Smith on "How to Choose Your Fabrics. I think I learned a thing or two. Still assembling my blocks but eventually I'll have a quilt put together.

I won a ribbon!!
Mountain Quiltfest was in Pigeon Forge in March. I had shown you my entry on my last post. Well, I won a ribbon!! Excellence in Hand Workmanship. I was (and still am) very surprised, shocked and excited!! I bought the challenge packet for next year and already have ideas swimming in my head. Dates for next year are Mar 13-16.

What Tickles My Fancy?
I have enjoyed participating in the Mountain Heritage Quilt Challenge the past few years. This year's theme is "What Tickles My Fancy?"
My answer is "Quilting, Of Course!!". And also Christmas decorations. The poinsettia in the center came from 'Another Season of Beautiful Blooms' by Susan Taylor Propst. I am so happy to be finished. And the deadline is another month away. Whew!!

Orca Bay Revealed
Because of all the busyness associated with the holidays, I was unable to keep up with Bonnie Hunter's Orca Bay Mystery Quilt. However, I was able to make some of each step. So when the mystery was revealed on Jan 1, I was able to pin 2 complete blocks on my design wall...a positive and a negative.

I really, really like it and can't wait to get more pieces sewn together.
