Bartonsville covered bridge / quilt bloggers fest

If you like to look at great quilts go to the quilters blogger festival site and visit all the quilty goodness.

There are lots of links to some really talented quilters, so check it out and support them. :-)

 

The quilt I'm posting about was made right after hurricane Irene came thru last year. I thought of it because of Sandy coming thru. It is done with fusible appliqué, then quilted down with different colors of thread.

I sold it but if I remember the size was about 28" by 18" or so.

 

This is the photo I used to make the quilt - the bartonsville covered bridge stood strong since 1805

 

And this is what was left after Irene. You may remember the video of the bridge falling into the river. It was all over the news and was truly a great loss.
