Thanks for taking time to show us the beautiful quilts. For those of us who don't travel in real-time anymore, it's so nice to see the unique quilts that others have made. Lots of talent in all of those.

WOW!!!! Thank you for posting. They are overwhelmingly beautiful. My guess is they have mastered the 1/4" seam an color selection. LOL Maybe someday I will get there.

My DH and I went Friday, only had 1 day to see everything. There was so much to see and it was so crowded, lines were long in some booths. Found a few things I was looking for. There was tons of fabric, espically fat quarters and precuts.
I love seeing the demos and looking at all the gaggets (sorry it's late and I can't spell tonight) We did enjoy it all. DH was interested in the longarm setups as he wants to make one my machine will attach to and quilt.

I can't begin to express how beautiful they were - will post some pics later as they are on my laptop at home and I am at work...but for those of you who are on facebook, here is a link to my photo album:

Thanks for posting, we were there 2 days but don't feel like I still saw it all ... I never do!
For those who didn't get to attend, go to the IQF website www.quilts.com to see photos of the winning quilts & special exhibits :)
