I cannot even begin to sort out the photos on the quilts - there are too many and I took them for so many different reasons. Some I was able to get the shot of the information card with the quilter's name -and some I was not - so I apologize to anyone whose quilt is shown here that I am unable to name them.
The ones I am showing here are mostly pairs of a broad shot and an up-close of something unique that caught my attention - either texture, content, or something I want to try and was figuring out how to do.
These were INCREDIBLE artists!!! Some were quilts that I would like to try some day - some were things I would not try but admire -and some just made me go ????????? - but regardless of my reaction to each of them, the skill and artistry on every single quilt was unbelievable!

| The beadwork on this for the sunflower seeds was incredible. |
 |
| This is sideways - but I love how this one combined the sun printing of the leaves with the piecework of the overall quilt. |
 |
| Had to have a turtle. More info to follow on this one at another time. |
 |
| This was an oriental design. I have seen these blocks in a book I have on Japanese style quilt blocks and have them on my list to try. |
 |
| The book I have uses striped fabric for these - which I don't have much of - but the piecing of the strips is GENIUS!!! (I already made one of these last night!) |
 |
| Oh Look - A Squirrel (sorry it is sideways) |
 |
| Sideways -but the texture and use of fonts and colors in this was inspired. |
 |
| Of course it was awesome that it had "Queen" in it... no bee though! |
 |
| Tessellating MOM! WOW! I am so going to try this one - for a pillow in my studio. |
