Congratulations, Marilyn!! The wool applique looks beautiful, and the quilt is lovely, too...you really do merit those ribbons! Well done!
The vegetables and herbs look so fresh and delicious...I used to have a big garden here, but finally got discouraged after a couple years' crop failures. Maybe I will try a small patch next summer. I sure loved being able to go out in the yard and get (don't swoon, ladies) a sweet, garden-fresh tomato, warm from the sun and bursting with juice!
When I first moved here, there was a nearby county fair; but they now have discontinued it
. It was the real thing, like yours sounds: big buildings full of lovely goats and rabbits and prize chickens and such, cattle and horses too, and veggies, jam, cakes and pies, quilts, and all sorts of handicrafts. I sure miss it!

ops: ROSEMARY--I had just spend a crazy week with my family--give me a chance to rest before you think my fingers should be working again.
Yes Susan--snacks! Although there were snakes. One particularly aggressive one called a Diamond Back water snake had me wondering what I would do if he decided to slither into the boat (gratefully, I was on shore, sitting in the boat). I just wasn't sure if the little bugger would bite me since he was biting at the fishing pole. Isn't it amazing that bugs terrify me but snakes and mice will startle me but I am not afraid of them.Comment

Rrrrr! Snakes ! :evil: Jan...We struggle to keep the Ag. traditions going....but seems we are in
an ever increasing time of interest in growing and eating "closer to home"....I hope that trend continues...

Marilyn congratulations on the wins for you and the hubby. You two must work very hard to produce such lovely veggies. We were really hoping for a bumper crop of strawberries and raspberries this year but we had a cool wet spell just when they needed sun to ripen them so all was lost. Then we have had blight warnings for the past while because it is so warm and humid here so the potatoes probably won't be that great either. But on the upside we have no snakes, St. Patrick sorted that one out for us :lol: Just back from Festival of Quilts in Birmingham, UK - my bags were heavier but my purse was lighter; my weight was heavier but my spirits were lighter; my quilt didn't win any ribbons (didn't expect it to) but it did sell! All in all a successful trip. More photos to follow on the FoQ thread.

Congratulations on the sale of your quilt. I know you have already posted this somewhere but which quilt was it that sold?Comment

Hehehe...... at the moment Rita's quilt is here with me (long story). I may demand a very substantial ransom before I release it to its new owner.
