Sauder Quilt Show, the Rest of the Pictures

My Pastor's Attic quilt was awarded first place in the applique/handquilted class at the Sauder Quilt Show. I knew the sweepstakes winners were presented with a 'plate' but I didn't realize the blue ribbon quilts were also! I was very surprised when Lynn and I picked up our quilts and we each received a plate.


The plates were made by the village potter. It's definitely on display in my home!

The first group of Sauder quilt show pictures were published last Sunday. Here are the rest of pictures. These quilts weren't necessarily prize winning quilts, they are the quilts that caught my eye.










We can ALL relate to this quilt and we ALL have the pieces to make a quilt like this!







There were many more lovely quilts at the show that I didn't photograph. I couldn't take pictures of them all, besides, my phone died.

The 2025 Sauder show will be held Wednesday April 30 - Saturday May 3. SauderVillage.org/QuiltShow

Congratulations on your quilt ... and that plate is wonderful! I really enjoyed seeing the pictures of the quilts... need to see if I can go to that show next year.

Congratulations on your quilt show win! That plate is gorgeous. I love pottery like that. All of these quilts are so very pretty. I loved Sorrowful Mysteries, but I was disappointed with the name as the quilt is so vibrant and full of energy. Obviously only my opinion. I may try to visit that quilt show next year.
