Great Northern Quilt Show

We can always make it saturday, is that better for you Lorchen?

[Lorchen]

Friday (because it's still school holiday) or Saturday are both fine with me. Sunday is not possible.

I had a good day in Yorkshire and met Rosemary there, she's starring on the flat Rita thread.

Some of the quilts.
I loved these by Dilys Fronks. She made two quilts by using the cutouts from the first on the second. Clever eh?


My photo's don't show it but there was some beautiful fancy machine stitching on it

this little quilt was fun

[twiglet]

and I find Hilary Beattie's work inspiring

[Zarah]

Wonderful quilts. I agree with you on the inspiration from the last two quilts. Thanks for sharing

[Zarah]

Shame you couldn't make it Lorchen - there were quite a few lighthouses there

[Zarah]

We also saw some beach huts for Lotti...

[Zarah]

and the rest of the beach huts...
For me I liked the miniature goldfish
the swags of sardines on the Seaside Balitmore

[Renata]

Photography was permitted provided that we did not make any money from our photographs - I can live with that.
Rule Britannia!

Wonderful quilts ladies, thanks for the photos.

We were just talking about St. Patrick's Flag over dinner this evening and my daughter informed us that the Union Jack is a combination of the Saltire of St Patrick (which is a red X on a white background) together with the original flags of Scotland, Wales and England. I learn something new every day.

Thanks for showing me how much I have missed.

But since I have aquired Grandmother status my priorities have shifted a little. One of these days Eva will be old enough to go to quilt shows and look after her tottering granny.
