Quilts at Rosewood

A little while back I went with my sister to a quilt show at Rosewood, a small town about twenty minutes away from where I live. They hold a quilt and craft show every two years and it is always lovely to visit, the ladies are so friendly and welcoming. While all the work was lovely, one or two quilts appealed more than the others.

I have always liked house quilts, and this one appears to have been made from recycled shirts. This definitely appeals to my thrifty soul!


Photos are not the best I'm afraid, because of difficult lighting and angles.


I love the use of colour in this one, not something I would choose, but very effective.


And who doesn't love chevrons!


There was also some exquisite tatting and crochet, but I somehow neglected to take pictures.
Next post...raffle quilt! I have to report the top is finished and it is now at the quilters.

    I love the Little house quilt. It reminds me that I have one half finished...somewhere.

    I love little houses too. There is nothing nicer than a country quilt show. Glad you had fun Carolyn xx
