Today the Divine and Long Suffering Mr. C'est Chouette and I went to a South Dakota vineyard to attend "Quilts and
Vines"~ a charity event presented by
Strawbale Winery and
Heirloom Creations in conjunction with Project Linus. Quite a sight was in store for us......

Sorry, we forgot to take pictures of the wine~ it was, afterall, a wine tasting~ and taste we did. This event will be on our schedule for next year, too. Even the D&LS Mr. C'est Chouette loved the quilts.

What a feast for the eyes.... Just beautiful! Think of all the many hands and hearts that contributed to this event! Was the wind as delicious as the quilts?
What a beautiful display of quilts! Looks and sounds like you all had a great time.

I love it, all those beautiful quilts I could have spent days just looking at them. Thank you for sharing Sharon, have a great week.
What a lovely post, Sharon! I wish I could have been there!
Doesn't look like Mr. Chouette had to suffer ALL that much! What a gorgeous, gorgeous event, with the quilts, the scenery and then the grapevines.
And then wine tasting too! So glad you had a lovely time, sweetie. Please join me for a diving giveaway sponsored by Heavenly Hostess and Romantic Homes Magazine. xoxo Lidy
