Shop Opens and More Show Pictures

Opening Day for Round Bobbin Quilt Shop is Thursday, March 29!  

On another note, I cannot resist sharing more pictures from the CLQ Guild Quilt Show.  So here they are, in no particular order:

Barbara Harrison's quilt.  Just lovely.

Mary M's quilt.  Embroidery, Applique, Piecing, etc... it's all here!

Donna Steck's redwork quilt.  Quilting by Linda Carey.  

I think this is by Sue Levin?  I just love the overall effect.

One of the incredible works by Tena Kellogg.  She won Viewer's Choice for another quilt at this show.

Joyce Hughes' award-winning entry in the 2010 Patriotic Quilts contest.   She made it in honor of her nephew.  The quilt is part of the "God Bless America" Touring Quilts.  Any proceeds from these benefit wounded soldiers and families of the fallen.  

I hope you enjoyed these pictures and hope to see you at the new quilt shop!

Great Show

What a whirlwind weekend!  The County Line Quilters Guild Quilt Show was held over the weekend.  Here are some pictures...

A partial view of my vendor booth.

Round Bobbin Quilt Shop booth at the show.

Carol Breinig's Double Wedding Ring quilt (Peter's Quilt) - complete with trapunto.  I awarded her my Vendor's Choice ribbon and she also won a Viewer's Choice Honorable Mention.  

Isn't this fun?  Joyce Overberger's Owl Quilt - an original design!

Odds and Ends by Joyce Overberger again.  Won a Vendor's Choice as well as Viewer's Choice 2nd place.  What a thrill!

Joyce Hughes' quilt - the Viewer's Choice winner.  

Sally Malley's quilt.  Great story.

Sandy McKenney's dodecahedron "quilt".  There's an exercise ball in there! 

The quilt I had to cut in half to share with my friend, Patty.  This is My Half!

The most popular mini-quilt at the Mini Quilt Raffle, this small quilt was created by Joyce Hughes and  I was super-lucky to have won it!!!  

A touching tribute quilt by Joyce Hughes.  A Vendor's Choice winner.

A blast from the past!  Lynne Tomlinson's crazy quilt  was made from a  Block of the Month I designed for a local quilt shop several years ago!

Hope you enjoyed the pictures.   Over 200 quilts at the show and these were just some of my favorites.  I am just sorry I can't post them all!  Credit also goes to Kim Pope who quilted a couple of these quilts.
