Quilt show

Last month I went to the
Lancaster Spring Quilt Show
. It was held at the
Lancaster Host Resort & Conference Center.

I was looking forward to seeing the exhibits
of three of my Facebook friends. And of
course there was lots of vendors.
African Quilts and Embroidery booth at the Lancaster Host - I bought this pincushion - I love it!

Tambani is a quilting and embroidering initiative
to set a group of disadvantaged rural African
women on a path of self-actualization and
economic empowerment.

Sue Reich - World War II Quilts (book also
available)
Sue gave a tour and explained each quilt.




I was very excited to see this one in the exhibit
Made right here in Lancaster county!








Here's another one from Pa.




If you love World War II quilts - you can
order Sue's book HERE





Mary Kerr - A Quilted Memory

I loved this exhibit - Mary shows how to display
some vintage pieces. You can buy this book
if you click on her name (above) at Mary's
website.




I love this piece!

After walking around for 3 hours my
feet were killing me - I had foolishly
worn the wrong shoes!
There was so much more to see that
I missed!

Next time more comfortable shoes!
