This past weekend, there was a Quilt Show in Midhurst, Ontario. Usually I have a booth
there and this year was no exception.
The lighting is bad so I do apologize for that.
There were alot of applique quilts this year but I will make you wait until next week
to see those. There are too many photos to show you all of them right now.
The Art Quilts were pretty amazing too!
This cute little guy was made by Linda.
And this little guy is so sweet. I think the owner took a class with David Taylor. This
is the outcome of all that work.
Isn’t it amazing what a person can capture in fabric?
This wallhanging is pretty cool. I can’t remember the designer but
there is alot of hand embroidery in it. Seems that hand embroidery is becoming
popular in the quilting world too.
I am guessing that Mckena Ryan is the designer of this pattern. It suits the
style of the piece.
I love this piece-“Peggy’s Cove.” It reminds me of home-especially since I did grow up in Nfld.
This quilt was made using the pattern and technique used by Grace Errea. I saw her on the
Quilt Show and want to try out her technique for making an Art Quilt.
Are these poppies? I should have read the little note with the quilt but
being in a rush makes you miss out on some details sometimes.
This one has an interesting name indeed.
What is living by a Great Lake without seagulls to annoy you?
This is my favorite wall hanging/Art Quilt out of the whole show. I love the
fun that the creator threw in with all the 3D embellishments on the bottom of
the piece. There is even a fishing lure and a seashell included in the piece.
And last, but not least, here is a photo of my quilt that was chosen to be auctioned
off by SACA. Made me feel pretty honored that they purchased a quilt that I made.
It even hung nicely-pretty flat and not many ripples at all.
That’s all for now but I promise more photos next week.
Have a great week.
Hi Ruth: I did not realize you made the auction quilt. I loved it!! Super job!

Oh I always love a quilt show and its quilts. Thanks so much for sharing! Your quilt is beautiful. Do you sell things at your booth? Tell us more.
Hi Angie, Usually, I have a booth at the Quilt Show to advertise my longarm quilting business-Stitching Impressions. This year I did sell an applique quilt-Rose Sampler. The designer is Rosemary Makham. At my booth, there are quilts for sale too but I am finding that buying a quilt is similar to buying an art piece. Alot has to do with personal preference and what colors, styles and design a person likes. Ruth

Thanks for the sneak peak. I wish I could have attended the show.
SO many lovely quilts thanks so much for taking the time to share them with us. Your quilt is a credit to you so much work there, I hope they made a lot of money from it and it is helping some one. Loved the poppies and the sea art quilt. Cheers Glenda Australia.
Thanks for sharing these pics, shows are always so difficult to photograph. Your auction quilt looks fabulous, what a great quilt for some lucky winner.
I was headed to see your pinwheel quilt, when I saw your art beautiful art quilts. They generally aren’t my thing, but yours are amazing, they look like water colors. My favorite is the cottage on the hill, and second is peggy’s cove. Just amazingly beautiful.
Hi there,
Thanks for your encouraging words. Just to let you know, all of these art quilts are not mine. They were made by different people and I took photos of them at a Quilt Show on the weekend.
Those are incredible quilts, thanks for showing them. And congrats on having one of your quilt chosen for the raffle. It is very beautiful!
