The Quilt Show


Went out to the Brookfield Show Grounds for the annual Schoolhouse Quilter's Quilt Show yesterday...

Always an amazing event!

There were planty of interesting quilts, but the ones I really liked were the challenge ones, where they seemed to be doing a season of the year! This gum leaf one was outstanding too!

The reason I like going out to Brookfield is that is is so lovely and
well, rural. There was a cricket match in progress on the oval.





What a wonderful place to have a Quilt Show! I missed the Brookfield Show earlier in the year, so it is nice to make up for it, with this one.

The kids had entered one too..from Grade 3...








I really loved this doggie...it just reminds me of Abbey so much, and also so much of a painting Jo did of Abbey in just the same pose! I guess labradors all look a bit alike eh? All very cute!


This was my friend Mollie's quilt. I should have put in the close up of all those little round medallions she sewed together. This photo doesn't do it justice at all!

So here are a selection of other quilts...hope you like them!
I did ask whether I could take photos and the answer was in the affirmative...but I didn't actually ask about the blog...so if you like them don't copy them entirely eh?





I really liked this one...it really captures Winter don't you think?
Ok Hope you have enjoyed the annual Quilt Show...next year, why don't you zip out there for yourself and have a look see. They sell pretty fine sandwiches and goodies for morning and afternoon teas and lunches also!
