Today I went to the IVQG Quilt Show. Last December, I won a quilt that this guild made for a breast cancer group to raffle off. That quilt is now on my bed. I love it!
Right off the bat, I saw a framed hexie quilt. (you can click on each picture to make it larger).
I had to laugh at this next one. So cute!
This next quilt is a great way to 'frame' a small 'picture' and turn it into a lovely large bed quilt.
I took a picture of this next quilt to encourage a blogging buddy of mine (Terri) who has just tried crumb piecing in the past week or so.
This next quilt reminds me of the modern blocks I made last year for a Treadle On block exchange. I really need to put my blocks together.
This is a wonderfully whimsical quilt.
Captain Dick, who started Treadle On, made a similar quilt a while back. It's on my 'bucket list'.
The guild also had a great pin cushion display (darn, not for sale;)
These are the last of the quilts that I took pictures of.
I had a fun day. I stopped at 5 thrift stores, went to the quilt show, and also visited a quilt shop (where I ran into Mary). I bought backing fabric for at least 6 quilts at the quilt shop.
Hope you are having a great weekend, too!

So many gorgeous quilts. The one with the pieced flowers that look like applique is gorgeous. So did you find wonderful things at the thrift shops?

ReplyDeleteThanks for the tour, and for thinking of me. I did learn some good things from the crumb quilt. Some mighty fine others there too. Love the pineapple.
