Dean Smith of Simply Teavine hosted the MS ARTeast Festival today (July 23) with 20 artists displaying their creations. The event was held at her family's 1884 Meador Homestead Cabin just outside Hattiesburg. The artists were stationed about the grounds and in the cabin and on the porch. Dean had prepared dishes such as Brett Favre's Chili, Eudora Welty's Shrimp Eudora, and William Faulkner's Barbeque Chicken and served it from the remodeled and updated kitchen.
There were wood turners, authors, beekeepers, stain glass artists, chair makers, and singers among the artists, giving the guests a huge variety of items to enjoy. A little rain shower did not dampen the mood of the happy visitors, and people enjoyed the festival and the lovely grounds.

Martha, it looks lovely. Love the name of the show. I hope you are doing well... ((( HUGS )))
Your Japanese lantern quilt looks great on the bed. I'm glad you had good traffic and there was little rain (not so at my house that day).
Thanks, Holly. The festival was lots of fun, and I am doing very well, especially enjoyed seeing lots of art friends. Linda, I agree that the Japanese Lantern (courthouse steps) quilt was great on that old high bed.

Martha, what a gorgeous quilt! Looks like it was a lovely way to spend a day - or even part of a day. Thanks for sharing.
