I feel like I've had so much to write about here! A week and a half ago, I went down to the HMQS event in Salt Lake, and now I'm finally getting to share some pictures with you.

Upon first impression this quilt looked like machine embroidery. It's all reverse appliqué!

I love how some can take a beautiful photograph and make it even better with fabric.

This quilt looks like plain pinwheels, but at closer look they are all mini log cabin blocks. Such tiny pieces - I hope it was paper pieced!

Love the color combo in this one, and the quilting is beautiful!

I loved these flowers! Couldn't help myself :)

this is such a fun quilt, all the details added were so cute and fun!

This one was so pretty, and looking closer the flowers are all folded fabric. The texture was amazing!

I love how happy this quilt is - when I decide to do "real" appliqué the
Aunt Millie books
are where I will go. :)
Finally an antique quilt I couldn't resist photographing -
You can enlarge the picture to read more, but it was made around 1875 - 135 years old!
I think it's pretty amazing to see some designs last the test of time. Makes you wonder about the quilts you are making today....hmmm. Always add a label!
Hope you are inspired to make a quilt ~

Oh wow, amazing quilts Thanks for sharing the pictures.
Thanks for the show - so many wonderful quilts here! I love the red background on the applique' daring and wonderful!
Thank you for sharing your pictures. These quilts are wonderful, unique, and fun. A good job, well done to all of the makers and quilters. And to you for sharing your great pictures.
Have a great day.
I will never stop being amazed by the talent of quilters all around the world - what spectacular works of art. It is so heartwarming to see 100+ year old quilts that are still around as a legacy of the person who created it. Amazing pictures - thank you!
Thank you for the pictures, Amy! At first glance you hardly can tell the wonderful detail you captured in the close up pictures...WOW!! Thanks for sharing! Have a super day :)
Those are beautiful...I especially love all of the folded flowers. One day I will have the time (and patience) to put all of that work into a quilt. Thank you for sharing.
These quilts are all amazing...thanks for sharing...one of the first quilting classes I ever took was from Cory Allender...the quilter in the first photo...she is a great teacher!

Thanks so much for the pictures, Amy -- I've been wanting to attend this show, and I live so far away that it hasn't been possible yet. Great photos -- and, yes, great inspiration.

I have been forever pondering how I want to do my granddaughter's quilt and you've now given me some creative inspiration with the folded fabric quilt! YAY! How fun would THAT be to try?! :-)
