I've got two, Colleta, (though one isn't very tidy). Just let me know what flight you will be on.

Love them - love the lore too.

What a talented group! My favorite is the large sampler. How unique to have them displayed in a castle no less!

The quilts are all great, and the castle reminds me that I forgot to grow up and become Cinderella, but seriously, that spider quilt cracks me up!

OH WOW! So beautiful! I love them all. The castle is just so wonderful. I have always wanted to visit Ireland, don't know if I will ever get there, but thank you so much for sharing a bit of your beautiful homeland with us!

Oh, the mosquitoes eat me alive too and itch forever!

Thanks for the wonderful tour of the castle and those beautiful quilts....I love yours, the icicle edge is stunning. I imagine if you did live in a castle like this you would need dozens of quilts to get through the winter. Hmm maybe quilters should live in castles!

Your group may be small but obviously very dedicated to the craft...Thanks again.

PS. Made me feel I should hop on a plane...my maternal grandfather's family hail from County Kildare.

Wow.... the quilts are awesome but the castle is just amazing! We don't have anything with that kind of history behind it here, it's hard to imagine. My family tree goes back to Ireland also, a lot of Kiwi's have some Irish blood somewhere.

Thanks for sharing the photos! :-)
