My sister is spending afew days with her son (new owner of the yellow table runner!) - shetold me that they had spent yesterday at the Mennonite relief fundsale and auction. The link shows only a small segment of the quiltsthat were on display - she guessed that there must have been 1000's ofthem!! They had watched the auction for a while and thought that awinning bid of $1400 on one quilt was for a large queensized one - infact, it turned out to be a wallhanging: #90 "Going Home" - needlessto say, they enjoyed the food and atmosphere (long lines for sausageson buns). Enjoy the show, jennellhMennonite relief auction quilts

Our Mennonite sale was this weekend too. This was the first year is quite some time that I didn't go out to see the quilts. They are rather disappointing for the most part, but worth a peek. The auctioneers are the best part. And the food. Darn...I'm sorry I missed it!
What a beautiful collection of quilts. Thanks Jenn.
And, what a great method of showing them - having the 'close' on each made it so much quicker than usual - marvellous. . In message , jennellh writes
Thank you for the link, Jennell. I enjoyed the display. My favorite is number 75, Sunshine and Shadow. It is a unique presentation of simple squares.
OOH! I liked #93 the best!
