GUILD MEETING

At last some quilt pictures again!

Last saturday was our regional guild meeting organized by our group. Over 160 persons turned up and the main theme was redwork. We had a great time, met a lot of friends, made new ones, had a nice lunch, and infected some new women with the quilting bug!

Here are some impressions:

The stage being prepared before the arrival of the crowd.
( the quilt on the front right handside is from my mum.)



The board in front of which Dorothea and I showed some hand stitchery live!


















Some of the quilts hanging there.





I particularly like that one!





And the show and tell!


This week is going to be very busy for me: a new course, a lot of appointements,... I hope to be able to squeeze some knitting and/or sewing in between.

I wish you a nice week.

Je trouve très sympa aussi le petit patch avec les arbres penchés.Je sens que je vais m'en inspirer.
Bisous
