Today I did white gloving the The Best House. We were busy the entire time - 2 white gloves from our quild for the handling of quilts and any quilt questions and three Best House curators for the tours and history of the houses. I took a lot of pictures and I am just going to let them speak for themselves - some of the antique quilts were donated for the weekend by guild members and some are part of the Best House.
This one did bother me for the longest time - each time I talked about it - AH HA - do you see the misplaced HST?
Tomorrow I white glove at the Library and main show - more pictures to follow.
Sewingly Yours,
Sharon

What a show!!! I can see why that HST bothered you.
I sure like that pink one although they are all gorgeous.
Oh, my, what a lot of beautiful treasures! And yeah, that would bother me, too.
I was going to say maybe the "misplaced" HST is the Amish mistake in the quilt except the mistakes are very, very difficult to detect in the Amish quilts, typically. What a great job to have today! I'm anxious for more pics.

Sharon, that is so funny I was going to say I liked the red one the best but I like it even more with the mishap! Because that is something I would do and just leave it that way.LOL
Just wonderful...now that HST is annoying me...such a shame after all that work.
There are some really great quilts there. Thanks for sharing.
What a great show are having- some wonderful quilts and the setting is magnificent
Beautiful house, beautiful quilts, the HST is just the sort of thing I would do and notice after it was finished, then I call it a signature :)
What a fabulous location to display so many lovely quilts!
Thank you for sharing these treasures! There are some real beauties here....but those blue and white ones just jump out at me. Just fabulous. I love the red, even with the mistake....I am not perfect, but loved!
What a great display of quilts! And yes, that misplaced HST jumped out at me once I discovered it. Guess that makes us human!
BEAUTIFUL pictures. What a wonderful setting for quilts. Thank you for sharing. Looking forward to tomorrow's post.
Beautiful setting for the show; I love the furniture as well as the quilts:) I'm more interested than bothered by the hst; I wonder about the maker. Did she not see it until it was too late or do it on purpose?
Looks like such a wonderful place to spend the day.
What wonderful quilts. It must have been great to see them up close.
Fabulous array of antique quilts!! Thank you so much for sharing, Sharon. Have fun on Sunday!!
I love white-gloving it -- you get to see everything up close and personal. What a great show this is!! And yes -- whoops! I think I have a block in my very first quilt that has a similar mistake!! LOL! :)
I love the first quilt most of all. The quilting is amazing on so many if them. I do see the HST....it really stands out. Might it be a humility block or whatever it is called?
Old quilts are so inspiring. Thanks for sharing these.
