Last night we braved commuter traffic (so many cars heading toward Stowe!) to deliver my Blue Orange Peels quilt to the old Grange hall in Waterbury Center for the "Fabric of Our Lives" show. What a nice surprise to see two people I knew, also dropping off pieces. I am still puzzled about why they chose the more traditional of the two quilts I entered, but I guess I'll find out more when I attend the opening reception October 1.
It looks like the hall is still a work in progress, with unpainted walls and new stairs. Paul said the floor looks great, though, and many old Grange halls show a lot of wear from dancing and various gatherings. Artwork will be hung from the ceiling, which has a suspended grid and will work well for quilts on dowels or curtain rods. Now that the quilt has been delivered I'm really feeling excited about being chosen!
