Yesterday some of my sewing group went to Marton to the enjoy the local quilt show. There were heaps of people and the Club were using a new venue (much better than previous years). The weather was absolutely ideal with no wind or rain, whereas visitors were reporting torrential rain and flooded rivers.
I managed to spend one of my vouchers which I won at Tote & Gloat, so will use the product and show you soon.
I took a couple of photos of quilts to share.
This one was one of many using the same block, but in different colourways:
Here is my Viewer's Choice nomination:
just love the colours and shapes, and lots of quilting! Mmmmm! may have to think about doing something like this :-)
There was also a Twelve Days of Christmas quilt made from a commercial Australian pattern, which I thought was very well made with a great choice of colours and fabrics - sorry no photo :-(
The guest exhibitor was Anna Williams (a Club member), who has a wide variety and exquisite work. They also had the NZ Quilter Suitcase exhibition quilts, and the NZ Hoffman Challenge quilts. Plus, a lovely mix of merchants.
All in all, we had a terrific few hours.
