I got to go to the Houston Quilt festival today. Went with my mom, my sister Stacey, my dad and my beautiful attitude filled 10 year old daughter. She loved it even if she did get hungry and tired. I loved it too, left there feeling inspired and ready to create some pretties. My mom went there in search of a new machine and to find a new dealer. My sister and I went to scope out the competition in the booths and the vendors, and of course look at the pretty creations. I took pictures of the red work quilts and some of the star quilts. However a lot of quilts I loved I could not take a picture of.
This was a miniature red work quilt. I love Christmas quilts.
My daughter loved this one. The artist used stripped fabric and it looked like actual thread on the spools.
Of course we can't go without stopping at the props set up for photos. Selfie time!
This astronaut made a quilt block in space and there was a challenge for others to make star blocks and submit them. There were 28 quilts made from the blocks that were submitted.
More hanging red quilts
I'm going to make one of these trees!
Loved it! I think I had more fun this year than in times past! I wish we had more time actually. Sad we did not get through more of the booths actually.
