Here we Show Again....

Here are the last quilt photos to share from the quilt show.

But first Good News~  The Silk Quilt was voted Viewers Choice, so there is justice in the world.

Hanna loved this quilt.  It was fun to tell her about the Dear Jane phenomenon.




This quilt

Is made up of this - 



I'd love to do one of these one day -





Beautiful quilting here!










Here was one of my favorite features of the show:

In the meantime, I'll be visiting the Happiest Place on Earth, or as my husband calls it, The Mother Ship, since he works for a Disney company.


Have a fun week everyone!

  15. Another stunning group of quilts. Such great diversity, and thanks for sharing all of them with us.
    So many to enjoy, but I keep going back to look at Rare Birds. I love the whimsy, the uniqueness, and the creativity. That quilter and her friends must have a collective great sense of humor.
    Enjoy your time away!

  16. Thanks for sharing all the lovelies!

    I think my overall favorite was the one titled "Butterflies Flew To My Garden", and of course the Silk one.
    What an unusual quilt, I just couldn't seem to quit looking at it!

  18. the Layers of Memory quilt is mind boggling and wonderful and i'm surprised at how well all of the blocks fit together in The Jennings Homestead quilt. one can see that there were different interpretations of various elements/colors/etc and yet it comes together very well. amazing.
    love the history within the Emancipation to Inaugeration Exhibit. the folk images are fascinating and the history so important~!
    thank you for sharing Barb.

    enjoy your Disney adventure and give Mickey a kiss for me.

  20. Fabulous quilts! I'm so glad the silk one got the win.
    The house puzzle looks great. I love those kind of quilts, and Charlotte is so clever.
    Others are just beautiful too.
    The special exhibit looks real interesting. I could spend some time there taking it all in.
    Have a great trip! Heheheh.."Mother Ship". :)

  22. Thanks for the shows! Glad your favorite won Viewers Choice. I don't really pay much attention to the ribbons. I guess I'm not an experienced show attendee. Our local show is not juried. It does seem like you'd want certified judges. After attending the Mid-Atlantic show I think Mancuso's emphasis is more on the vendors. Many fantastic quilts, but I'd say 2/3 of the floor space was allotted to vendors.
