More Quilt Fest Pictures

More photos of Quilt Fest Chicago -

Lots and lots of gorgeous antique quilts.
 


 
Beth at The Quilt Merchant booth

 
Val owns The Quilt Merchant shop.

 
Val showed me what she's been busy teaching and working on - a Patchwork of the Crosses quilt. Do I dare even wonder if I have time to try this?  English paper piecing is so much fun. I found some pretty POTC designs on Pinterest. Oh my, you gotta love all the fussy cutting quilters are doing with these blocks. Maybe I'll just try making one . . . . You've heard that line before. I bet I'll be hooked before I know it.
 

Linda Franz has written a wonderful book on making this quilt.

  5. Kathy, Thanks for sharing your photos. Once again I missed the show. I really want to start the Lucy Boston quilt but I have told myself I have to finish my hexagon quilt first. It was nice to see Beth and Val, I will have to make a trip to her shop soon!!! Karen

  6. Such beautiful quilts - I love the reproduction fabrics the most. I have started a Lucy Boston Crosses quilt - I think I have got 9 blocks done. I really should try and get them joined but got sidetracked by hexagons!
