Manchester Quilt Show

After last year, when I took a ton of photos and Mum and I were awed by some of the quilts and different techniques, we were just a tad disappointed by the showing this year. It seemed as though we were looking at the same quilts as the year before.... Regardless, we had a good time walking through all the quilts and vendors. Mum even got a few quick 'how-to classes' from 2 vendors that were showing their different projects!
This was not the all-around winner, but it was my all-around favorite!
It's a borderless (so it almost looks like a picture!) quilt of a boxcar traveling the rails
A close up of the wheel assembly
details on the side of the box car
The view of mountains, farm land, telephone poles that you see under the car
more details of the rivets/ bolts and box car info.
We ended the afternoon with an early dinner at Portland Pie Co.... same place as last year :-) and it was not a disappointment!
