Indianapolis Quilt Show

The girls and I packed up and went to the Indianapolis Quit Guild Show today. With the show being literally down the street from me, I wasn't going to pass it up! We saw some amazing and HUGE quilts there. I can't imagine cutting out the number of pieces that created some of these quilts. I was amazed. And the girls were so good. Minus not being able to physically fit the double stroller through the doors to get in to the show, it was a successful trip. Thank goodness for nice quilting ladies that like to hold babies while mothers unload strollers and lug them through doors.

This quilt was amazing. I can't believe all of the little tiny pieces of fabric.




Claire liked this one and wanted her picture taken with it.

Beautiful ginko leaves on this artist's quilt.
(Made by the sweet lady who held Alana while I wrestled with my stroller.)

Who can turn down a beautiful dresden plate?

I still can't figure out how this one was made...


This one was by far my favorite.
It's just a pieced square of circles that is cut and reassembled. I think I can figure it out.


Fun with striped fabric.

Gorgeous applique.

Bug jars. Isn't that CUTE?!

Teeny, tiny pieces. So meticulous. And it's HUGE! Sophia is there for scale.

This was the most modern one I saw.

Beautiful landscape.


The results from "Take MY picture, Mommy!" Not very pretty!
