Endless Sleeve (as opposed to Endless Love LOL)

Well I hope this quilt sells at Pigeon Forge, LOL. The next question for you all would have been, do you baste these things on? I have already hemstitched it on, still have halfway to go. If it doesn't sell there, I have to take the whole thing off and move it down 5 inches for the next show. It sure would be nice if there were a national standard for sleeves.

You can see a close-up of the fantastic quilting at http://home-and-garden.webshots.com/album/557471647vPqoZw by Donna Patrick of Mount Carmel, Tennessee. (And yes I gave her credit on the label as well as the applique design of Theresa Field of Fort Pierce, Florida). Name of the quilt is Appalachian Spring ~ To God be the Glory.

First "real" snowfall last night and this morning. Guess we have a few inches. But it will be gone tomorrow as it is going up to 48. Lavinia-TN

    Lavinia, I LOVE THAT QUILT. I think the standard for sleeve height depends on the height of the ceiling in the place where the quilt show is held. I just baste sleeves on because I would sure rather do that work than have the show hangers pin the quilts up so they don't hang on the floor.
    Just stay inside and enjoy looking at your snow. We are sending spring flowers....soon.

    That quilt is absolutely gorgeous. The log cabin goes on and on doesn't it?
