USA - 213
JAPAN - 51
AUSTRALIA - 20
SPAIN - 15
FRANCE - 3
GERMANY - 3
CANADA - 13

MEXICO - 1
BRAZIL - 3
NEW ZEALAND - 3

I have pictures of a few quilts from a very few of the Exhibits. There were a total of 1072 additional quilts in 56 distinctive Exhibits.
I will post them next time.

There is NO END of incredible quilts to see at this show.
Next time I am fortunate enough to return to Houston for the show, I will allow more time...this trip was a last minute whim.
I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving!
In stitches,
