My own husband's office in the Lung Center in Bradenton Fl, In the dental office of Dr. Lance Seberg DDS in Bradenton, Fl and the dental office of Dr. Gregory V. McGowan in Mooresville IN. All my quilts and all men who I treasure in my life. Betty Ann

I saw one of Ricky Tims' quilts hanging on the wall in an eye doctor's office, in the Barnes Hospital building in St. Louis.

Also, Maria Bein, wife and nurse of Dr. Norman Bein of St. Louis Vein Specialists, is the daughter of an avid Australian art quilter. So, Dr. Bein's office, waiting room, examination rooms and even the bathroom are decorated with Maria Bein's mother's art quilts on the walls in lieu of paintings. Maria gave me a tour and stories behind each quilt when I mentioned to her that I was a quilter. It was like being at a quilt show. The quilts are beautiful.

PattyinFlorida OFFLINE Posts: 8	I helped my church do a simple quilt show. We asked folks to pull quilts out of the back of their closets and we displayed them over the pews. It was set up by 3 people in about 90 minutes, displayed for one day for a church festival, and put away in another hour or 2. Easy and fun!

Anabeth OFFLINE Posts: 40 Thank you received: 42	Rather than do landscaping or build small buildings for our garden railway when my husband began constructing it in 1995, I made some little quilts to hang on a line. THEN I started thinking about gardening. A couple of photos are at http://www.personal.psu.edu/axd2/quilt/qlt43.html Anabeth
