I think some of the quilts are intensely beautiful in both colour and execution, they put my 'soft crockery' effort to shame, but hey it's good to have light and shade and I just wanted to make people smile!Anjiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00727014804137420187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3402767592335548328.post-7706285645842096892011-08-23T22:53:28.400+01:002011-08-23T22:53:28.400+01:00Fantastic works of art, I'm in awe!Fantastic works of art, I'm in awe!debshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05264176564861392279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3402767592335548328.post-11664546093414634262011-08-23T14:27:38.204+01:002011-08-23T14:27:38.204+01:00Thanks for the comments everyone - it was an amazi...Thanks for the comments everyone - it was an amazing day! so much to see :)<br /><br />I'm thinking about trying to make a quilted cushion cover, nice and small for my first project and if it ends up looking frightful I can stick it on the bed in the spare room :DBugs and Fisheshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06973019615558057522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3402767592335548328.post-27410333330991020472011-08-22T20:39:53.806+01:002011-08-22T20:39:53.806+01:00Thanks for sharing, its looks like there was an am...Thanks for sharing, its looks like there was an amazing amount of super quilts & talent on show.

My God that's pretty.<br /><br />If you do want to start giving quilting a go make sure you start off with an easy pattern and take your time. It's easy to get suckered into some of the prettier ones. Maybe do a wall hanging or a centerpiece for your table. You can do those easily by hand, in your lap and they're portable :) <br /><br />For me the two most difficult things are picking your fabrics and cutting everything out.Tumushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15227617255242305716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3402767592335548328.post-45222546208590945542011-08-22T15:33:36.493+01:002011-08-22T15:33:36.493+01:00Those quilts look amazing!
