Welcome to the Northern Star Quilters' Guild XXX Quilt Show in Somers, NY
What a fabulous show! Lots of beautiful quilts, many vendors and some really amazing speakers. What talent. I was so amazed at the level of creativity. Fiber art has come such a long way. Quilts are not just for the bed ladies... They are on the walls and on the floor! Made with recycled materials and sewn by hand and machine alike. The ladies in my family are hand quilters. I am the first generation of machine quilters, and I absolutely see the value of both endeavors. I LOVE QUILTS!!! I would have LOVED to touch them all, but I had to keep my hands to myself. Those were the rules...
I fell in love with so many of the quilts I saw today. I tried to win one, but I did not succeed. I did go home with a few fun things, though. We stopped at Pinwheels Quilt Shop at 2006 Albany Post Road, Croaton-On-Hudson, NY on the way there. I purchased a couple kits, but wanted to save myself for the Big Show. More pics to follow when I can figure out what is wrong with my slideshow!
