Quilt Show


We are on our way home and I wanted to show you a few quilts that I saw at a quilt show in Punta Gorda FL.

 
This next photo is a close-up of the above quilt which was inspired by Alice in Wonderland.  Look at all those little pieces!
 
 

 
The quilt below is machine appliqued and then a sparkly tulle added with adhesive before quilting. 
 
It was magnificent in person.

 
This quilt had beautiful hand applique.


Another beauty!

And I leave you with a photo of the beauty we left behind in Florida.  Hopefully we will return next year.

Oh, thanks for the lovely show and tell. That first one has an amazing amount of fabric in it. I bet it weighs a ton.
I'm glad you enjoyed Florida, it's nice to have you back.

I love armchair quilt shows. That first quilt is totally amazing. I have you don't have to dig a path to get yourself back home.

All the quilt photos are beautiful. I cannot believe all the little pieces in the first quilt photo. Wow! That must be a very heavy quilt. Nice picture of that Florida beach.

Wow, what gorgeous quilts! Thanks for sharing the pictures. The Alice in Wonderland inspired quilt is amazing--it must be so neat to sit and look at all the fabric in it.

Lovely quilts! There's nothing like a quilt show to give you a dose of creativity. Love your beach picture, too.
