Another Quilt Show!

Here's some more yummy quilts! Drove over to the Utah State Quilt Guild's annual festivities which were held in Midway, Utah this year. I had forgotten about it until I dropped in at our LQS and the gals said they were packing up for a booth they were having at it. I called a friend and we ran over the next day to see the booths and quilts. Of course we were half-way home when we remembered we didn't find/see the Boy Scout quilts or the local quilt guild's Row by Row quilts. :(

The quilts were amazing. Like always! Here are some of my favorites:
 

Teeny tiny pieces made up this wonderful quilt.
 

 

 

Here's a close-up of the quilting. Love the pop of the jewels!
 

A Lori Holt pattern. I have always loved her applique patterns. This one was fun with the choices of fabric that was used.
 

 

You can't see or read it but around each square are sayings that the quilter's mother use to say to her family. What an heirloom quilt this is!
 

This was such a sweet quilt, especially love how the dresden plates are placed on top of each other.
 

 

LOVE all the hexagons. The colors were beautiful in this quilt!
 

This quilt was awarded Best of Show. If you could see it in person, you would know why. So amazing and gorgeous! What would it be like to be able to piece, applique and quilt just a smidgen like this person? Make that HAND QUILTED! Words can't describe how beautiful it was.
 

 

Ah! This appliqued quilt really caught my eye!
 

Was a fun little "middle of the week----get out of town" trip!
