Holy Cow... I was not prepared for the NUMBERS! Lots of quilts. Shout out to the featured quilter Joyce Dean Gieszler! Had a very nice visit with her and enjoyed her display. Sharing some snaps here:
I always love seeing the same pattern in different colorways. "Safe Travels" (top) and "Grandma's Surprise" (bottom)are pictured here. I was surprised to find someone who ENJOYED math (my total nemesis) and said a little "Bless your heart" LOL! Meant in the nicest southern way... I can't imagine what it would be like to be good at math... but we did get a chuckle out of my amazement... (NOW I know who to call when I get stuck)
Joyce has a couple of VERY nice books out, very well done and at this point I was confident that the math would be right... hahaha... Please check out her blog and store HERE:

I added "Fantastic Stash Quilts" and "Then and Now Quilts" to my library. I'm thinking they will become dog-eared favorites!
Here is the rest of Joyce's display. LOVE the vibrant colors and great staging. Enjoy peeps!
