My little Round Robins

I have previously blogged about my 4 little wall quilts. See the side panel "Cotton Robin". 

They usually hang (mounted with magnets) in that corner next to my bed but this is how it looks at the moment:

My favorite quilt group The County School Quilters (meet monthly in Montpelier) had agreed to a quilt exhibition at the brand-new Hanover Museum of History & Culture. Of course members where asked to participate and lend something they had made I offered my 4 little 'Round Robins' and the curator really wanted them. 

Of course I wanted to see the exhibition and suggested to James the outing. It is about a thirty minute drive each way and as we both had cabin fever we were soon on our way. Besides he could try out his new car, ha-ha.

We did not know what a historic place this little town was. The new museum was just established last August in the historic courthouse because the County is celebrating the 300 year anniversary. We had never been in Hanover and had not realized how much history there is.


We were very impressed with the museum and the exhibition. Of course I have seen many of my quilting friends' works at the meetings but we were the only visitors and could take our time. Such incredible work. And here are only a few photos.




Of course I have more photos but here are those of my 'minis'.





Some more eye candy. The exhibition was so well done.



Another of the historic buildings across the green. There were signs were we could read about some of the history and we had a good time. Glad we went. 


 I felt so inspired but unfortunately right now I have other things I need to do. Sigh.
