THE VILLAGE QUILTER #7

Welcome to Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton--ourhistory, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools--in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.

Our new series here at EverythingCroton--THE VILLAGE QUILTER--has proven so popular that we once again have two quilts for you today.  And of course along the way--and when we find them--we'll feature quilting tips, interesting links, and more....AND SO... 

Click on the photo to see an amazing red and white quilt created by the since disbanded Croton Pointers; we don't know much about it other than it was probably created in the late 80's, early 90's. It's a beauty.

Next up we continue to feature the work of local quilting artisan Sandi R--the quilt below is called the "Pineapple Quilt"--given its central motif--we just love the color combination and almost hypnotic patterns. Very pretty! Click on the photo below.


And because you asked for it--check out this Amish Spirit Quilts site--incredible photos: http://www.amishspirit.com/Quilt_Photos.html
