Trunk Show Part 3

 

 

Loved this one! Someday I want to make a quilt with these colors and use plaids!
 

Again, Geralyn Powers showed a different colorway by using different fabrics. All the fabrics were from her stash.

Trunk Show Part 2

More quilts from That Patchwork Place and the books, Scrap Basket Surprises and Baker's Dozen:
 

 

This one was done by our local quilt designer, Geralyn Powers. She wanted to show how the quilt could look in a different colorway. It changes the whole design sometimes.

Trunk Show

I attended a trunk show last week at the LQS. We saw quilts from That Patchwork Place. They had sent quilts from a couple of "stash" quilt books. Of course I can't remember both titles now. One was Baker's Dozen though. I think the other one was Scrap Basket Surprises. It's always fun to see the quilts in person instead of just pictures in a book. The colors are so much better in person!
 

Have to say I loved this one!
 

 

The gal on the left is the owner of the store. Notice the aprons hanging above? They go along with the BOM on aprons. The September block was not an apron block so I am excited to see how it will all play out by December!
 

Will show some more later this week!

Quilt Show

Thought I would post these pics tonight of the small quilt show that was in conjunction with Quilt Wyoming. Several quilts caught my eye for different reasons.

This first quilt was very different. The Bible was printed on pellon or some other sort of interfacing. It also was several pages so it could be turned like a book.
 

Hard to believe that this "painting" is really fabric instead of paint! It was amazing!
 
Here's another one that shows the fabric a bit more.
 
I should have read the tag on this one. Reminded me of a Pam Bono pattern. Maybe it is?
 
This is a Christmas quilt. Can you see the Christmas trees surrounding the star?
 
A way to incorporate doilies onto a quilt.
 
This was a beautiful quilt. Each embroidered block has some black beading sewn on it.
 
A close-up of one of the blocks.
 
Will show more pics from the quilt classes I took in another post. I had a great time!

HMQS part 6 More Gorgeous Quilts!

We were always amazed at what fabrics were used in each quilt. I know nothing of color and design but all of these quilts were done to perfection! I would love to watch in action how each designer picks their fabric especially the picture quilts.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Can you see the numbers quilted beside each bear? When I saw this quilt I wondered who it was made for. So much detail and work!
