Gayle--you must have had a wonderful time. I love looking at all the quilts when I go to a show too. I could/would never make an art quilt--but I love looking at them and so appreciate the time and talent that goes into them. Like you, I am more of a traditional quilter but even the more traditional ones at a show are awe inspiring. I always come home from a show all pumped from seeing all the gorgeous quilts AND from shopping all the great vendors!!!!! I am so glad you had a good time.
