Elk Grove - Part 2
More pictures from the Elk Grove Show.......love the quilt below....must have used paper piecing.Cool fish wall hanging. Another cool fish wall hanging.....it was hanging way up at the top of the quilt frames.....I would have loved to see this one close up......look very three dimensional. I like picture quilts......this one is very beautiful. This quilt was very unusual.....African fabric was used. See a close up below. Isn't this quilting cool.....I had to take a picture to show you all. A very colorful quilt below.
Each of these baskets had a different fabric of fruit or veggies or other stuff in it so each basket is different. I'd never make one but it is a different quilt. One of the quilters really loves their dog. I am busy getting ready for my retreat. We leave tomorrow at 9:00 am and hit every quilt store between here and Twain Harte. I will be taking lots of pictures and also attending the Sonora Quilt show on the way home on Sunday.....and taking lots of pictures there. Talk to you all next week.
I am a quilter. The grandaughter of a dairyman. I was married to a dairyman but am now divorced and have a daughter. I work for a dairy trade group. Love cows and the country life. I was born here in the big valley and have never lived more then 15 miles away from where I was born. I buy way too much fabric, patterns and quilting books, belong to two quilt guilds and will never have enough time to finish all the projects I want to do.

Thanks for sharing the quilt show pictures. So nice to enjoy eye candy. They are so nice - I especially like the bargello.
