quilt party
We've had so many rainy days that it's forced us to find some inside fun. Yesterday afternoon we had a quilt party, which was a HUGE hit with my kiddos. We gathered (almost) every quilt in the house and spread them out in the living room. It literally looked like a sea of quilts. It was ridiculously fun.
Afterwards, there was a lot of folding to do. We made piles and did a tally. The totals were revealed at supper. It was really, really fun to take stock!
We also thought it would be fun to host a guessing game here on the blog. Guess how many quilts are in the piles shown. I'll send a little present to the winner. (Or to the person who has the nearest guess. If there are multiple winners I'll draw one from a hat.) Go on, make your guess! Oh, and please leave me your email address, too. Please, only one guess per person.
Happy Monday to you!

I'm guessing 57 quilts. That's a LOT of quilting. I haven't even come close to a number that big, lol.
racingfamily91@columbus.rr.com
I think there are 54, but it's hard to see. Whatever the number, it is obvious that your family is blessed by an abundance of quilts!!
I think 47 gorgeous quilts.

My guess would be 66 beautiful quilts in that picture.

I'm guessing 67. Whatever the number, it sure is a lot! Quilt party sounds fun. It's like we used to do with the couch cushions when they were boats and we had to stay out of the "water" (floor). Smart mom to keep that math in use over the summer! Thanks for the game and the giveaway. Trepmom (@) gmail (dot) com

I'm thinking 51, but I feel as though there are some hiding that I didn't count. What great stacks! I asked my husband if he thought that would be fun if we did that too. He said our living room wasn't big enough! If Amanda Jean can do it . . . (Then he said you must have a REALLY big living room.)
