Default Check out the Cairo Egyptian Quilt Exhibition

A board member, JustAbitCrazy, told me about this, this morning. thought you might all enjoy. Seems AQS is putting on a quilt show in Michigan this August. There will be quilts from this exhibition plus 2 of the quilt makers will be there too. Check out these awesome quilts on U-tube. All you have to do is type Cairo Egyptian Quilt Exhibition in your Search engine and watch the video. It is great!!!

These guys came to Australia a couple of years back and I was very impressed with their speed as well as the beauty of the quilts. Jenny Bowker also makes lovely quilts based on Egyptian themes as she observed whilst living there with her diplomat husband. Here is a link to more of Bonnie discussing the techniques used by these fellows"
