quilt show

recently i took my mother, who has made dozens of quilts, perhaps close to 100 counting the baby quilts for each of her great grandchildren, to the quilt show at the cleveland metro parks.

sometimes it is difficult for her to go to these shows, not because she doesn't appreciate the beauty of all of these pieces gathered in one place, but because she does not quilt any more.

her one observation was that most of the quilts were quilted by machine.  no longer do contemporary quilters do the work by hand.

here were some of my favorites.
