Yes, there were other quilts at the fair - and oh such lovely ones. It is, of course, always my favorite display at the fair - and I have to walk through at least three or four times. This year I didn't take as many photos, just strolled through and enjoyed the quilts. I did take photos of quilts that I thought certain friends would like.
This was my favorite - I think it should have gotten the Judge's Award and Best of Show - it really was gorgeous. Each duck was different and I love the way the ducks swim along the border - I really admire a quilt with great borders that a lot of thought went into!!!
This one is for Pam - I like the way it makes your eyes move - and maybe even spin a bit. . . and is very very purple!!!
Here you go, Crispy - this one's for you. It reminds me of your work and designs . . .
And this one is for me - all done in 30s fabrics. Aren't those little houses in the border just the cutest thing - again, a well thought out border.
The squares are about an inch and oh so many YoYos. . . It was a great day at the fair. Such talented quilters.

Wonderful quilts, JoAnn. Thank you for sharing your photos. Congratulations on your ribbons! Well deserved.
Thank you for the pictures. I didn't have time to visit the quilt barn. I like the ducks and the yo yo quilt. And the house border is very cute. You picked some good ones.
Thanks for the show - almost as good as being there!
I have the pattern for that duck quilt...it is just lovely...thanks!
Oh wow, I really like the one with the 30s prints and the yo yos! The duck one is really nice too. ~Lili
Great quilts!! Thank you for thinking of me LOL. I love the house border....something to keep in mind for a later date :0)
Crispy
Jo, you are absolutely right. I love the purple quilt! But I also love Crispy's quilt, and your quilt as well. I am so happy Don won a first place ribbon on his display. And you won even more ribbons! Congratulations to you and Don! Isn't it fun entering things in the county fair?
I am always impressed by the level of quilting diplayed at Lynden's Fair! I have seen a pattern for that yoyo quilt before. I too am attracted to it and have been tempted! I am not so sure about those small blocks though. That is a lot of piecing!
They are all beautiful, thank you for showing them. I do like the second one.
Nothing like fair quilts, where the real people come out to play :)

Pretty quilts indeed! I like the pinwheel one with the different purples! How fun..
Congratulations on your wins! Good for you.
I really love the ducks quilt, too.
Thanks for taking us to the fair.
Oh my, just beautiful! I love looking at the quilts at the fair. I am fascinated by their detail....
