The quilt I had in the show isn't exactly a masterpiece, but it hangs on my guest bedroom wall.

Wow! If these are made by casual (vs. professional) I'm overwhelmed. Especially the art quilts. I just don't know how anyone who is not an artist can put together such things. But, then, there are so many talented people out there anything is possible. In any case, congratulations to anyone who has a quilt among these fabulous pieces. Beautiful. And your photography is excellent, too. Very well done on all parts.

OMG what amazing and gorgeous quilts, especially the one with Mt. Rushmore, looks like a photo. Besides the exquisite quilts, the landscape and art quilts were spectacular. My quilts pale in comparison, but when I look at my first quilts to the ones I make now, I can see a huge improvement - practice makes perfect. There are some amazing quilters out there. Thank you so much for sharing these quilts with us.

Loved the landscape quilts the best. My neck wasn't so excite about all of them, but I sure was. Beautiful, beautiful! Maybe, if I had only stayed in MI????? Nah, never happen, I could never get any that good.
