I will try and post some pictures from the Long Beach International Quilt show that I went to last weekend.
This may take a few minutes.

This is made of silk fabrics

Oh my, those are gorgeous!!!!!!!! I'm 72, will I ever be able to make a quilt like those??? I recognize one of the quilts as being from an older magazine that I have. I showed it to one of my classmates to show her that she could use some yo-yos she made to make the grapes. I don't think she has ever decided what she wants to do with her yo-yos.

Thank you. I have more I could post but I am hearing that I am slowing down the internet (from my daughter) and my DH is waiting to get onto this computer.

Love the pics. Thank you. They are not only beautiful... Some of them are so clever.. I wish I were as imaginative as some of these creators.

I think I will always be a follow the pattern, person.

Wow!...after I pick my jaw up off the floor...they are beautiful. Hard to believe some of those are quilts! I can only hope to do anything remotely like that one day. Thanks for sharing them :)
