Joining the Red & White Quilt Exhibit!

I'm joining in the Red & White Quilt exhibit hosted by Taryn at Repro Quilt Lover.  It is conjunction with a major exhibit of red and white quilts sponsored by the American Folk Art Museum in New York from March 25 to 30 at the Park Avenue Armory.  Admission is FREE!  Nothing is free any more especially in New York.  650 red and white quilts in one location!  Hope some of you get to see them!

My quilts from top to bottom are the Double Irish Chain in time of St. Patrick's Day, a Basket quilt and a Feathered Star quilt.  They were all purchased at antique shops or shows.  Hope you allow me this small diversion from herbs!  Just do a post about your red and white quilts and you may win some great red and white quilt magnets!  Go on over to Repro Quilt Lover at the link above.  I'm going right now!

These are so beautiful. I just love quilts. We have several that were made by my husband's grandmother and they are the sweetest things.

Well, since I love quilting almost as much as gardening, I don't mind seeing those beautiful quilts. Thanks for the treat.

Thank you so much for posting these wonderful red and white quilts! I am so inspired by them. I'd like to start working on my own double Irish chain right now.
