My DH and I went to the quilt show today and saw lots of fantastic quilts and there were alot of interesting ideas represented!!

I hoped to run into Don - Isewman but missed him. I hope you don't mind Don that I post pics of your show here. Don belongs to the Quilt Guild that presented the show.

Here are the ones that impressed me. I noticed the quilting more than I ever did before. I am not good at the hand or machine quilting down part. But after being exposed to all the conversations about it on here I was more aware of it instead of dismissing it and looking beyond it.

I felt I looked at these with a better perspective from all I have leaned on here of areas that I was not familiar with before the board. Now I looked at these techniques with a new understanding.

So enjoy all the beauty!!

This is one of the quilting techniques I mentioned above

This one is interesting as it is not a complicated quilt but never the less an interesting look! The fabric chosen gives it the fascination factor. It would be a good beginner quilt.

This one I liked as it is a variation on the Drunkard's path
