The Great Minnesota Get Together aka The State Fair
I didn’t go to the Fair this year, or as it’s called around these parts, the Great Minnesota Get Together. I usually never miss it. But this year there was just too much going on, so I took advantage of the quiet in the house while the rest of my family spent the day eating anything they could find on a stick. Here’s the webiste: http://www.mnstatefair.org if you are interested in checking things out.
Speaking of the Fair, my friend Roseann Kermes (Rosebud’s Cottage) is a hard core Fair lover. In fact she has a booth at the fair - 10 days worth. It’s in Heritage Square and worth the trip! She has lots of cool stuff about the Fair on her blog. As I was reading it, I came upon an award winning quilt in the category of First Pieced Quilt - it was made from my Grandpa’s Best pattern! I would love to know who made it.
