We did learn alot and we caught up with lots of people that we know by name only. Thanks to those who dropped by and said hello.Our stand was by far the brightest at the show.
The feature quilt on the back wall was constructed by Mum (Tristesse) from a Jacqueline de Jonge pattern called Rainbow Stars. Jenny Scott from Always Quilting custom quilted the top which enhanced the colours in the quilt. Mum has another two of Jacqueline's quilt in various stages of production. Jacqueline's patterns created alot of interest and were certainly a talking point.
We were also pleased to announce that Katie Friesen has allowed us to print several of her books here in Australia. Her book Ode To Morris pattern book has an Australian only element in the inclusion of a wall hanging pattern in the book. Katie sent out a small wall hanging that was also displayed on our stand.
I hope all of you who went to AQC enjoyed yourselves. It is getting bigger each year and certainly offers alot to quilters.
Happy stitching.
Was nice to catch up with you and say Hi at the show.....I still look at the sampler BOM with guilt.......maybe I will use the fabrics and just make Dresden's or hearts and Dresden's...LOL>
