Hello Friends..... Yesterday my hubby and I went to West Palm Beach to the World Quilt Show show cased in Florida. It was really an awesome show and I didn't know if my knees were going to let me walk the whole thing and see it all but I made it. I took alot of photos and have resized a few to share with you. I will try and send in more later. I wish i had taken my better camera but it is a larger camera and didn't want to lug it around. Next time will take it as I am not completely happy with the photos this little camera took. I took alot of close up shots as well but they didn't turn out well at all. Next time I will know to take the better camera. Hope you enjoy the photos...

This was the most awesome quilt and really huge!! The detail is stunning.

I would love to make that first quilt! If someone could just draw it all out for me, I could really do that! The problem is being on a black background. Absolutely beauiful. It doesn't look like the quilt has a binding, or does it have a black border, do you remember?

Yes, it had a binding. Was black. Sorry my camera was not the best. I thought it used to take better photos than this.

Nothing wrong with your camera, it was the dark background that didn't enable me to see, and I don't have the best eye sight! Thank you for posting the pictures, loved seeing them.

I so wanted to go to that show and visit with my daughters, but total knee replacement surgery 2.5 weeks ago nixed my going.

Looks like it was a good show.
