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!

Oh my gosh, look at all those. Maybe 39? We'd like to see them all please?? Is there an "easy" way (and I know the answer to that is no) to have a link. I'm so curious now to see which ones you keep and which you've given away.I can see little bits of them and it's killing me to see what they look like opened out!!!
When did you start accumulating and are these all your work, or were some gifts from other quilters?
Quilt party is a wonderful idea; all those tents/forts and tunnels!!
