Summer Jaunt #1 - York, PA


 Forced myself to get up and going, looked to be a beautiful day!  Final destination was the "Every Quilt Has a Story" Quilt Show presented by York Quilters Guild.

First Stop:  Gifford Pinchot State Park.
I needed to replace my Park Passport which got drowned in a flood.  All out a the visitor's center, but they knew that they had the available at the Campground.  It was Friday late morning and people were starting to arrive to camp for the weekend!  Drove down to see the cabins and yurts, the modern cabins (kitchen stuff and bathroom).  The last time you can get a 2-night stay is next Friday, after that it's weekly and it's actually quite expensive.  Lots of picnicking opportunities.

Haven't stopped at The Finishing Touch in FOREVER, and I'm glad I did because they're closing in a couple of weeks.  Huge sale....60 % off remaining fabric.  Bought 2 yds of a solid orange Moda to add as cornerstones to my Jordan fabrics strip quilt.  $6.60!

Inspired by a photography by Dorthea Lange (public domain) taken in 1937.  The Dresden pate quilt was an artistic addition to the original photography of a "southern Lady."
GORGEOUS!!!
