The Amish are huge participants. Click here for the schedule. The Bart Mud sale is one of the first of the season and that's where I went with my buddy Ann on Saturday. Almost everything is sold via auction. There were over 300 quilts.
A peek at the quilts. |
There are horses, antique furniture, crafts, household goods and buggies. I love going with Ann. She is not a quilter and she is a BUYER!

Ann bought 3 quilts and a saddle for a pony!
I bought a yummy creme filled doughnut and a hot dog.
I can see why she bought quilts there...they look wonderful! Does she have a pony for that saddle though?!
ReplyDeleteAnn bought the saddle for her neighbor's pony. Do saddles come in different sizes?
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun time. Love your photos. But my heart is sad to see these beautiful Amish quilts at auction and hear that they didn't raise much money. What is the world coming to. These are high quality, beautiful handmade quilts.
ReplyDeleteIf you go again, let me know I'll send you money in advance to buy "anything".
Of course, I'd love one of those horses too...but somehow just doesn't work in So. Cal. residential neighborhoods. Darn!
