We went to a quilt show today in Springville

Marianne called and invited me to go to a quilt show at the museum in Springville. We are taking two quilt classes together. We oood and awwwd at all the beautiful handwork. The we went to The Cornwagon quilt store and I almost bought a kit but talked myself out of it, thinking about the projects I already have under construction.
I took this "happy!" picture of us with Marianne's "The Journey of a Quilter" quilt in the background.
Maybe I'm going a little "quilt crazy". Oh well, quilting is one of my passions.
I really liked this quilt.

I was drawn to this one. I seem to like quilts that are scrappy and have teeny pieces. I was admiring it and then I read the plaque. It made me so sad. I pictured myself painstakingly planning out the quilt with one of my boys watching me, and secretly being so happy to be making it for them, and then......how sad.

This quilt was absolutely incredible! The fine detail in the hand embroidered letters, and the embroidered people. A woman made it to celebrate her heritage. What an incredible heirloom. I wonder who will get this quilt when she dies? The pictures don't do the quilt justice.

This is called "Light of theWorld". The detail is incredible. She used batik fabric, and the houses are done in wool.

These are my other favorite quilts by Lori Holt. "Quilts" would be great in a sewing room, and the other is called "A Woman's Work is Never Done." All of her quilts are appliqued, with lots of hand embroidery. The borders are piced.
