First time I attended and wanted to share some of the beautiful quilts for those who didn't make it to the show.
|
Those are beautiful. Maybe next year I will be able to go.
|
oh my how beautiful!! I especially like the landscape ones.
|
nice show....
|
Beautiful quilts! The landscape ones are outstanding!
|
I have said before: There should be a different name for these and for the things I make. They are the opposite ends of a quilting spectrum. . absolutely amazing.
|
Great quilts and thanks for sharing your photos.
|
Thanks so much for sharing. These are beautiful!
|

Thank you for sharing these beautiful quilts from the show!
|
All those quilts are just wonderful. I just love it when you post show photos.
|
I was so fortunate to be able to go to Houston and to a quilt show for the first time. It is just amazing. So much eye candy, such nice people, and so many products. The overall winner was a complete show stopper. Just magnificent. Thanks for sharing these pictures.
|
All off them are so very beautiful, thanks for sharing.
|
Thank you for sharing -- this quilting board is the best !
Always sharing ! I enjoy the quilt shows because I can't go to them very often. So its my inspiration ! Love the last photo of the country scene(plaids for the barn roofs-excellent idea) and enlarged tulips at the bottom. Happy Quilting ! |
Fabulous, Thank you so much for sharing them.
|
I got dibs on the last one!

Beautiful quilts!!

Absolutely beautiful, Thanks for sharing

Amazing what a simple hexagon and unique, intricate patterns become such beautiful work of art.
|
thank so much...I'm into hexagons and just picked up some great layouts!!
|
OMG, each one is spectacular
|
These areso beautiful, when the hexagons came down, I thought they were the prettiest, then the land scapes, now I think they must have all been beautiful. I hope toget to go one year!
|
I like the bottom 2 best
|
I went too. It was fantastic and the quilts were amazing. I really blew my budget with the vendors but got some great fabric and ideas. I have a question though. I bought a charm pack of flannel squares that are perfect for a quick baby quilt. But how do I wash them without them getting out of shape? I've never worked with charm squares before. Any suggestions are appreciated.
|
Wish I could have been there.Thanks for sharing the pics!
|
Thanks for posting these. I spent two days attending and saw many beautiful quilts!
|
OMG How gorgeous these are. I'm new to quilting and I can't imagine ever doing such work.
|
I went to the Atlanta Quilt show about 3 weeks ago and was just breathless seeing these quilts up close. They were sent in from Germany, Australia, Alaska, and other far away places. Someone here said there should be a different name for what these art quilts are and what we usually make. I agree. I think these are "Fine Art" quilts.
|
Unbelieveable how anyone can create something so intricate and gorgeous. I am as usual at awe at quilters' craftmanships and creativity. Thanks for sharing these inspiring quilts.
|
Thank you so very much
|
Beautiful quilts, I love the pictorial ones, I always wanted to make one but I know it wouldn't even come close to these! Thanks for sharing.
|
Beautiful. I did not know you could do so many things with granny hexagons! And the pictorals are out of this world gorgeous. Makes me wish I could go.

You really took great pictures! I took a bunch and then accidentally deleted almost all of them. I was so upset but your photos have really helped! Thank you so much for sharing them. I hope if you have more that you will post them also!
