A Little Quilt

This weekend is the Anderson Valley Alsace Festival put on by the AV Winegrowers.  They have generously offered the Anderson Valley Housing Assn. one or two tables of silent auction items.  We get the donations and organize the auction, and they collect the money and give it to us.  I've gotten some very generous donations, as have Bill Sterling and others.  I came up with a donation of my own: a little quilt.  It's a spinoff of a larger quilt I made last year.  The center of the quilt was one of the photos printed on fabric that I decided not to use in the original quilt.

So here's the Little Yorkville Shack quilt.

 

And here's the larger quilt I did, called Yorkville Shack.  Keep in mind that the small one is 12 x 15

and the larger one is 36 x 40.  Yes, the color of the shack is different, which is one of the reasons it didn't make it into the larger quilt.  And the other thing is that the photo below is bad.  But I've got new lights and will try and get a better photo of it.

 

For those curious folks, here's a photo taken recently of the Yorkville Shack, unaltered.

 It is going, going, going.  I wonder every time I pass that spot whether it will have collapsed.  There are more Yorkville Shack quilts to come.  I will need to visit it again when the magnificent dogwood comes into bloom, and the old lilac and the old apple tree.
