    Thank you so much for sharing those photos. I love the fabric walk in... and those quilts... wow. To think it's all down by hand is hard to wrap my mind around. And the 14 year old's pieces... imagine what she could do with an EQ6 and a sewing machine.

    Had to go 'back' to the museum, so interesting...read this again, lol...hmm, think that's a bit like: you make noise when your here...lol, I know it wasn't meant like that...read something else...can't believe what I type sometimes :shock: ...trip was just as nice, 2nd time around. Did Hans enjoy it? My hubby might go along for something like that if it was part of other things, but boy, the sighing and yawning and looking at his watch :roll: He'd get quite a work out, while I would just stand there with my jaw hanging :wink:

    About a month. All squares are together, now to assemble the quilt and quilt it and I'm revising it to be larger.

    I KNOW Terri meant it as a compliment - she LOVES my verbal, I'm sure! :wink:

    DH is very good at exhibitions - he was an architect and is very interested in design so he finds something in the quilts to interest him - he even recognises blocks sometimes - one day we were at a show and he suddenly went 'drunkard's path!' - and he was right! :wink:

    Love K x

    Wow K..just saw this post...the quilts are exquisite!!! I am amazed by the quilts made by the 14 yr. old... Gosh, at 14 , I couldn't sit still for more than 5 min. at a time, let alone long enough to make a quilt...by hand!! Yes, its mind boggling to me. Thanks so much for sharing your trip and yes, I did miss you too :lol:
