Quilt Show Part One

I have to divide these photos into a few posts – otherwise you may just complain about too many photos!

Our quilt show is over with – there were lots of lovely quilts.  As with all things, I think we learned a few lessons for the next show in two years’ time.  Positive feedback, rather than negative criticism as my husband is fond to say.  We were under a disadvantage with our venue, I think.  But we are working on that for next time.

We have a large community of quilters, with many varied tastes as these quilts show.  I doubt you could pick a theme – that is one thing we may work on in future years.  Perhaps having a corner of the display set aside for ‘bears’ or ‘log cabins’ or ‘scrap quilts’.  Things like that.  We weren’t able to have a shop due to the regulations of the place we were holding the show at, and quilters love a shop.  Maybe next time.

So tomorrow, if I have time, I will try and posts some more photos for you.  I’m probably the youngest quilter in our group, and the eldest is probably near her nineties, and the quilting styles are as varied as the quilters in the group.

Till tomorrow
