The quilts on display were simply stunning, in this post I will let the images speak for themselves with a few notes here and there.
The small blocks here were actually miniature pieced log cabins.
The same artist as above also completed this stunning orange masterpiece.
I was intrigued by this quilt made with genuine South African textiles (ironically purchased in a MA shop).
The artist explained that the "birth of stars" was her inspiration for this quilt.
The use of neutrals here was very clever.
This was one of my favorites, made by a woman in England out of "polyester silk" (oxymoron?).
An American woman did improvisational piecing here:
This quilt is a draw-dropping masterpiece when you take a closer look.......
All of those pieces are tiny little squares pieced together!
This quilt, "Fire and Ice," received 1st place in the competition.
There are over 55,000 Swarvoski crystals heat bonded to the entire quilt.
This quilt was the grand champion, made by a woman in Kentucky.
Attending this show was very worthwhile. I encourage to make plans to attend next year.
You never know what you might see.....
