Quilt show quilts-yes, a sewing post!!

This is a table runner I may be entering in the GHQG quilt show in August... It's Sushiko quilted (learned it in a class), but never 'finished' it until last year.

This is the baby quilt I'm gonna enter. It was a mistake as far as a quilt goes, but it found new life in being another quilt top (it originally was the back of my DIL's baby quilt). Then I just picked out some material for the back, added the leftover fabric from the front (including the prairie points around the edge, then made a cute label for it.
I finally got a picture of my quilt stuff I'm thinking of entering in the GHQG quilt show in the fall.

Couple of new 'tests'...

This is a bunch of heartstring blocks Marilyn made for our quilting group... She made 16 of each type. I could see if I should make two baby quilts with borders or one such as this.
I have a compilation of heartstring blocks that were done at the last meeting of the Peace by Piece Quilters. I've 'tested' them out on my floor, but will wait until next mtg in Oct. to see how they like the layouts.... The challenge was to make them with a bright strip in the middle and on the corners, with white on one side, and black on the other.
Not sure if I like them with cool colors on the 'boys' and warm on the 'girls', or mix them up.
