I went to a local quilt show today. If you live near the Chicago area, this is a great show. The show will also be on Saturday. You can get info here.
There were lots of vendors, and the guild had a 'fabric' booth (fat quarters for $0.50, and fabrics for $2/yard) and also a members boutique. Yes, I bought from both guild booths and some vendors (sorry, no pictures). There were also books, magazines and patterns for sale, too. I did get a couple of patterns (6 for $1).
Don't worry, we did check out the quilts, too. Lots of lovely quilts to show you.
I love the name of this next quilt.
These are just a few of the lovely quilts. I hope you enjoyed them. Check out the quilt show if you can.
PS: They even had a Cafe', dessert was wonderful.
