Tropicana by Elizabeth Knox. This was my favourite (maybe it's because of the purple and lime green?) |
Pinwinne by Irene Anderton. This quilt is made of wool and is hand quilted. |
A Little Splash of Orange by Shiela Christensen using Kathy Doughty's Fractured pattern |
5 Days and 5 Nights in New York by Tracy Carew |
De-Flowered by Helen Malanchak I love the flowers and the range of colours (sorry about the poor photo) |
Siren Song by Shirley Mooney this is a very clever, precisely pieced wall quilt |
My friend Alice from our Possum Magic group also went to the show, and she put photos of her favourite quilts on her blog (click here to see her post). Funnily enough, she took photos of 8 quilts which are all different to the ones I chose. Isn't quilting great like that? There's something to suit everyone.

some real beauties here, day and night wonderful and the 2 with added flowers really caught my eye, thanks for sharing, I am sure you are going to enjoy this group. Off now to see your friends photos. Next week I go to the Festival of Quilts in Birmingham where there will be over 1000 quilts to photo! and of course lots of temptations too for opening the wallet
I really do love how different quilts speak to each of us. I really like Siren Song, too!
Youray for diversity! I didn't notice some of these quilts. I'm so glad that you are joining the group. I will be joining the city one as they meet on Thursday night. I'm now working on Saturday, so won't be able to do the capital club. I've heard that they have better speakers, so you need to let us know what is going on ;-)
THanks for the quilty photos. Beautiful quilts. I'm with you as I love Tropicana aswell xx
Quilting is great like that. One of my sewing-group friends and I always laugh about our opposite tastes. If I like a fabric, she will hate it, and vice versa. Yet, I admire the finished quilts she makes (even though I know I would never make one similar).
