Today though, I am just going to show you some of the fantastic things I saw. Please forgive my not so great photos, I was at the mercy of my iPhone as I didn't think we could take cameras in. I was wrong! Everyone had a decent camera in there but me. Oh well.
Here you go:
This was the biggest cathedral window quilt I have ever seen - 100 percent done by hand according to one of the volunteers. |
You cannot tell from my picture, but the creator of this one also free motion quilted Celtic knots and ropes. It was stunning. |
Can you tell how small this is? Check out the sign for it, and how it compares - they all had the same size sign. This piece was super small and the points for every corner were amazingly perfect. |
Hey!! How did that get in there?? ha ha |
Another volunteer told me that the creator of this quilt is an amazing artist with a button collection so large, she has it cataloged! *jealous!! |
Cheers,
Carolyn
Those are some beautiful quilts! Going to a quilt show always inspires me to do more quilting and try some new techniques. Plus I LOVE all the vendors in one place. Glad you enjoyed the show!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had a wonderful time, lots to inspire you and help you justify all that shopping!

ReplyDeleteOMG. I have never been to a quilt show either. I would love to go. Your iphone did a great job. The pictures are beautiful. I'm so glad you got to go.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the lovely pictures. Number one is especially gorgeous. It looks like a Piece O'Cake design.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful quilts! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteIt was great fun Carolyn and the photos worked out just great. We will have to do it again- there will be more quilt shows to visit I am sure.
ReplyDeleteThe shopping was great too.
