Even more - Part 2


This was tiny and AMAZING!!!




I love the outer border, particularly, of this quilt...



Hexies everywhere...even in the border...



I could not stop looking at this quilt...




The machine applique and quilting on this was really stunning...particularly the "lace" in the border...








This was a favorite of mine because the pinwheels are composed of music fabrics...



Just...WOW!



I love these kaleidoscope quilts...



Another one of my favorites..."Shutters" by Edyta Sitar...look at those skinny steps!




This was a charming hand appliqued quilt...








I collect Crabapple Hill embroidery patterns (and intend to do every single one in my lifetime...LOL!



Another unbelievable miniature...



I love the old log cabin look of this quilt...







This one was so dynamic...it's always so weird to me that they hang quilts on point...they did that with my "All Around the Town" a couple of years ago, and it just didn't look square (and I worked so hard to get that one square!)...





This quilt combined all kinds of fabrics...repro, batik, calico, romantic florals...it was really interesting...




A quilt after my own heart...makes me think of one of my favorite TV shows - "Ancient Aliens"...



What is it about watermelon that makes it such a fun subject for quilts?!?



This was the most interesting setting of a braid quilt that I've ever seen (but then, I'm an applique FREAK!



Are you tired of the show yet...there are more coming!

In stitches,
Teresa  :o)

More May quilt show eye candy - Part 1

I was going through a picture file on my computer and realized that I only posted ONCE about the Sauder Village Quilt Show in May.  Shocking!  There are so many MORE great quilts to share!!  Enjoy...

 

This was such a cool guitar quilt...so fun and colorful...




I have a version of this Blackbird Designs quilt, "Home Sweet Home," on my family room wall.  It is always fun to see someone else do this great pattern...



I wish I had a wall in the quilt cave big enough to hang a fun quilt like this...





The pastel colors on this quilt come from the tinted trapunto stuffing beneath the surface.  Very cool idea...



A lot of interesting detail in this one...



The next two quilts were blocks-of-the-month at the quilt shop located in Sauder Village...






I just loved these snowmen...



This quilt was absolutely amazing in person and definitely earned its ribbons...




 This was stunning in black, red, and white...



Apparently you can really "read" this quilt with a smart phone (I own a dumb phone, LOL)...



The color and workmanship made this crisp wallhanging one of my favorites...




Very - cool - dragons...



This quilt really caught my eye...very unexpected to see a snowman quilt in pastels...stunning...



Very traditional and totally amazing...




More amazing quilts in my next post!

In stitches,
