I went to a local quilt show a few days ago with friends from the Baltimore Modern Quilt Guild. We went out to lunch first at PF Changs! WooHoo! I took the afternoon off and everything. The Faithful Circle is a guild that some of my friends belong to. I took a few pictures with my phone of the quilts that knocked my socks off. I should have taken pictures of the names of the quilters but I forgot. They are very, very talented people.
The first two fairy tale quilts were incredible!! Very detailed and I could look at them all day!
The next one is by my friend, Maria O'Haver. She pieced it in a workshop. Really incredible!
I just loved these bright and happy quilts.
I am really drawn to the black, white, and reds, aren't I? Of course, we all bought plenty of new (unneeded) fabric. We saw a great demo of fabric postcards (I totally want to get a few of these in the mail!) It was a wonderful day!
Here is a little peek at what I worked on this weekend for our Round Robin. The assignment was to add a 2" border with triangles. I tried some improve triangles. It took me a little while to figure out that the best way was to put both fabrics right side up to cut the angle, then flip one over to sew them.

| Hope the owner can appreciate my little triangles! There is pink in the quilt (I swear! You just can't see it!) I can't wait to see all these quilts in June when they are all completed! I have pictures of a few of the others I worked on but I am afraid it would ruin the surprise! |
Hope you are having a great week!
