11/06: Amish Auction
Category: General
Posted by: The Agnew Family
The Amish Auction was held today and once again we attended. This year our friends Bob and Gwen came with us as I thought Gwen, being a quilter, would love the quilt auction. By the way, I was correct.
The auction is a consignment auction with a percentage of the proceeds going to local Amish school. There were four rings --- farm implements, furniture, quilts and horses. Ed, Bob and Victor wandered around whereas Anne, Gwen and I spent most of our time watching the quilt auction. I did bid once but the items went out of my price range very quickly.
Kids will be kids.

I thought the quilts were exceptional this year --- a lot of them were in colors I like.
