This post includes a few more photos from the August AQS quilt show held in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Hopefully, the quilt photos add interest to the repetitive applique progress on Midnight Stars. Hand applique is going slow, but steady! This past week the remaining stems were appliqued down while sewing outside while enjoying the remaining, fleeting summer days.
Since it's Slow Sunday Stitching at Kathy's,
I will be adding flowers and leaves to the recent stems.

Below are only a few more quilt show photos should you be interested. They are in no particular order. Although not ribbon winners, they should have at minium received honorable mention.
The following Roaring Twenties wall hangings were particularly fun!
The outdoor plants are showing signs of summer's end. This is my Bombshell Hydrangea which its' blossoms became just too heavy for its branches. I call it Upside Down Hydrangea.
Happy Sewing!

The flowers are beautiful
Pretty pink petunias and pretty appliqued flower. Your applique quilt is lovely. Love all those Kaffe Fassett fabrics. Oh my goodness, such stunning quilts to be seen at the quilt show. Amazing not a single one was awarded with a prize or a honorable mention. Such exquisite detail in each one.
Gorgeous quilts at the show. I like those roaring 20's quilts too! Your appliqué border is bright and beautiful! Happy Stitching!
Your applique quilt is stunning!
Beautiful applique, and gorgeous quilts at the show. My hydrangeas didn't bloom much this year at all, it has just been too blasted hot. Hopefully in the next weeks it will calm down. Happy stitching!
I love Orange Appeal and Twinkling Starlight. Your applique border is really coming along. Beautiful.
