This is a fabulous applique quilt, a tremendous amount of work went into this quilt. Lots of tiny pieces, hand appliqued and embroidery.
The blue quilt is one I've always liked from Better Homes and Garden Quilt magazine. It was nice to see it made up.
The Tea Cups from Crabapple Hill was stitched by my dear friend Vera.
The stitchery bunnies another Crabapple Hill pattern was stitched by Andree, she is in my quilting group.
Another pattern I really like and hope to make one day.
The wool applique quilt is called "Midnight Garden" and was hand applique by another dear friend Teresa.
The Bacon and Egg small wallhanging was the funniest at the show. The sign read "this was made for my son because he thinks bacon is a food group" Too hilarious!
The picture was taken at the Quiltopia booth, a local quilt shop. The Heart Quilt in the back of the booth was made by ME!
The show organizers made some really cute signs to remind everyone not to touch the quilts. I took this picture because my MIL likes frogs.
And this is my purchases for the day, not much but that's because I have soooo much fabric at home waiting for me. Cheryl Wall is a local designer of Country Quilts and she has only been making patterns for a few years. I swear she doesn't sleep with all the quilts and patterns she produces. So I picked up one of her patterns just because. The 2 rolls of fabric are 1/2 yards and I couldn't resist the folksy pincushion.

I was at that same quilt show today! The Fraser Valley Guild has one of the best shwos around--I never miss it--it is worth the long drive!
Oh, ah, ouh, ah, what lovely quilts. Thanks for taking all those pictures and posting about it. What a lovely show it must have been. It makes even more special when you know the people who are showing their work. Thanks again!
Great purchases. Do you know the name of the green floral fabric? It looks really yummy.
What a thrill to have your quilt displayed. :)
Oh what fun! Thanks for sharing the quilts. Love tea cup stitchery one ..... was at our Creativ Festival here in Toronto yesterday and another of Crabapple Designs caught my eye "Blue Ribbon Seeds" - OMG, such dainty stichery put together with soft pastel fabrics.
Oh that blue quilt is gorgeous! I would love to make that one too! And I love Country Quilts patterns! I've got several - and even have started them! Thanks for sharing the quilt show pics!
I love your heart quilt!
Sounds like u had a great time Wendy.....i love ur heart quilt, how special to have it displayed so well!!!.......my favorite would have to be the pink and green applique (the one u hope to make!!!)
Looks like a wonderful show - I love all the pictures you've posted. No one in our area seems to do quilts like that at all. If it weren't for the internet I'd feel so alone in my love for antique quilts, reproduction fabrics, folk art and primitive.
What a great quilt show. There is a lot of talent in your area. I love the little "do not touch" quilted signs!
The quilts are lovely ... thanks for sharing!
What a wonderful array of quilts you showed us. I love "your" heart quilt at the back of the booth. Wow, Quiltopia looks like a great shop - you teach there?
Nice little gathering of treasures, as well.
I love what you did with my quilt pattern (Heather's Lacy Heart). May I borrow the photo to share on my blog & link to your blog? Sandy - Berryvine Designs.
My blog has moved although this sign in will only let me sign in with my old blog info. So.. you can go there & there is a link to the new one : )
I just love the Crab Apple Hill designs, and your friends did a superb job of stitching them up. How fabulous that your quilt was displayed, just lovely.
Thanks for the pics! I like the quilt in pink and green with the 4 flower blocks. Do you know the pattern name?
Wow - what great quilts. Nothing like a good quilt show to inspire you to get busy *s*
Congrats on having your quilt in the booth! Love the frog quilt. Is the pattern available for purchase somewhere?
