I just returned from Quilt Market in Houston where the exhibits are, as always, fantastic.
The French Guild France Patchwork showed winners in their contest Legendary Quilts.

I especially liked this one because Isabelle used my Civil War reproduction collection called Civil War Homefront from a few years ago.
These quilts are all stunning! Thank you for sharing them!
ReplyDeleteSo happy to start seeing some of "Houston" - happenings have been quiet in blogland.

Next best thing to being there! Thanks for the photos of the French quilts. What beauties!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! I love the Diamonds and Flowers.
ReplyDeleteLegendary Quilts are a famous exhibition in France every other year, the next will take place in May 2013 in Brouage (North of Bordeaux). All quilts are heavily hand quilted and are inspired from antiques.
ReplyDeleteI am longing for this next rendez-vous!
