I recently went to a Quilt Show with my daughter.
It was so much fun!
There were lots of fun things to look at.
This cute pin cushion was just one of many different kinds.
There were lots of small quilts and wall hangings.
Some whimsical, some traditional, some modern.
I just had to take a picture of the sign above the doorway into this room…
Did you see the name??
There were vendors and quilt stores selling so many beautiful quilts and fabrics.
I just loved the above quilt hanging.
I had to stare at this one for a while.
Lots of quilt stores had brought baskets full of goodies for the raffle tickets,
and there were many tables with these baskets for all of us to ooh & ahh over.
For a total of $3, you got 25 raffle tickets to put in the slots in front on your favorite quilt baskets. Unfortunately, I didn’t win any.
Maybe next time?
The display area was huge and there were many beautiful quilts to admire.
It wasn’t easy taking pictures because there were a lot of people doing the same things we were doing! Ha!
I thought this quilt with the birds was so cute!
This quilt (below) won the award for Best In Show.
It truly is a work of art.
We got so many ideas and felt so inspired after being there.
I was able to buy two little charm packs (42 squares, 5″ each).
This one (below) is called Whitewashed Cottage:
It’s a beautiful collection of soft pinks, yellows, greys, and blues.
The other one is called Miss Kate
and is a combination of bright colors & cheery fabrics:
Just looking at the fabrics makes me smile.
Can’t wait to make something pretty with them 🙂
Have a blessed week!

That looks like a good quilt show with lots to see. I did see the name above the door – immediately get visions of romance and adventure. I would love the charm packs you bought.
Ha! Yes, my daughter & I couldn’t believe when we saw the name above the door… we wondered how they happened to choose it. It was a good quilt show and we were definitely inspired to make something. The charm packs are sitting on my sewing table, just waiting for me to make them into a pretty project. I just saw a cute little doll quilt & pillow today… maybe I’ll make one of those – it sounds like a fun little project!
Love all the beautiful colors! Quilts are like canvases that are integrated with their art.
I feel the same as you do about quilts!
Wow, I am so inspired by your photos 🙂
Thank you! Your photos of the Redpoll were so beautiful!
Beautiful photos, they’re so rewarding! 🙂
I love quilt shows. The bird one was my favorite.
That was one of my favorites, too!
How beautiful I love the one with the birds. What a fun show that was. I love quilts and think it’s such a wonderful art form.
i think the quilt with the birds is so colorful, and it reminds me of Spring 🙂
Quilt shows are so energizing–just seeing all the creativity and color! You’ll have to update us on what you make with your charm packs!
Yes, it’s also very “therapeutic” for me since I tend to forget about everything when I’m looking at all those beautiful quilts, studying the patterns and fabrics and color combinations…thinking & planning how I can make my own creations, too. 🙂
Beautiful fabric! Looking forward to seeing what you make! Sounds like the birds take the prize! I love the bird quilts also…so sweet!
Daisy, I vote for the bird quilt. I have so many bits of quilting fabric that I hope to use up one day. That bird quilt is perfect since I love applique too (I’ve pinned it for the future).
