Finally Finished

There was one exhibit from the International Quilt Festival that I found truly interesting. It was called “Finally finished”. Here is the description…..

Let’s look at a few of the quilts…..

This top was made circa 1850’s. Teresa loved the large open areas and filled them with gorgeous quilting!!

…and look at the stuffed berries!!

…

This top was a garage sale find!!

….that she quilted with modern quarter-inch grids.

…

I love the “Trip Around the World” variation…..

…and appreciate the free-motion quilting motifs that she added….

…

This simple design…..

….called for some equally simple (but effective) quilting….

It was a sweet exhibit ….

….filled with classic quilt designs!!

I truly enjoyed thinking about what the original makers would think of their quilts now.

This bring me to a dilemma that I have been considering…. come back tomorrow and I will share more!!
