Wow Lea, love the new profile photo! I am sure that photo will turn up eventually - it wasn't on my camera.

Susan, they didn't have the quilts roped off - probably too many of them.

Maureen I have photos of some of the winning quilts - I will dig them out and post soon.

Wendy, I know I have seen the photo Lea wants on here, but I can't find it now

Sorry I thought it was

Terrific photos from everyone, thank you very much. I am sorry missed it this year but maybe next year

My apologies Lorna for saying your triangle quilt was Lorchen’s but from Wendy’s description on the photo I assumed it was Lorchen. Beautiful quilt.

There has been some mention on one of my groups about the contempory quilt winner being a Baltimore so therefore should have been in the traditional group. Anyone got a photo of that? And the other winners?

And me

Can anyone post a photo of our group when we gathered at 1:00. I want the one where we had our hands out.

Beautiful photographs of a lovely show. Isn't it fun to see the photographs after the show and realize the detail? I don't know about this show, but so many shows here in the US rope off the quilts so those of us with bad eyesight can't see up close. Photographs take care of that issue.

Thanks for all the sharing.

Anne it was a pleasure to meet you there. I had the leisure to walk around for four days so I had plenty of time to take lots of photos - over 300 actually - and these were just some of the best shot I managed to take. Even on Sunday we were still discovering exhibits we had not noticed before, but by then we were really too tired to take in much. It was great to be there and experience it and y'all were part of what made it a great experience.

I don't know if I was at a different show but I didn't see any of the quilts youv'e posted Rita and Wendy, I wish I had because they are beautiful.
I wonder if Bonnie Mccaffery was at the show as she shows a lot of these shows on http://www.bonniemaccaffery.com
I must have been having one of my "intellectual malfunctions" ie, senior moments.
I've said i won't be going to FOQ 2015 but never say never.
Anne

Thank you very much to everybody who are posting photos from FoQ! Maybe next year my number will come up and I get to go for the first time ever .
Marianne

You realise Lea now you're here you won't have time to make quilts!

Yeah! Yohoooo..... Lea! I really enjoyed sitting next to you Friday evening!

Beautiful, beautiful quilts!

Welcome, Lea! Happy to have you here.

Yay, Lea you found us! Welcome to the forum.

This is my final lot for tonight, Phillipa Naylor's quilt which won an award - was it best traditional quilt? This quilt was so beautifully executed with such attention to detail that it has to be admired. I am sure this one will be heading across the water to the bigger shows.


how did she do that twisted braid?

That's a facing not a binding. How the heck did she do that?

I don't know whether to be sick with envy, green with jealousy or just continue as I am - a sloth! I hope you enjoyed the slide show. I'm off to bed.
