Festival of Quilts 2023

Come and join us the Festival of quilts 2023. The footage was taken on Friday 4th August. The first part of the video shows the main Gallery. Then a little bit of the stalls and then the winners gallery. I tried to take footage of the designers information as well so you can find them. Although there was so much there, some footage is taken to give you the idea of the atmosphere. For more information on the show visit www.thefestivalofquilts.co.uk/

    This work is beyond my comprehension. I think if I had another lifetime I would never be able to produce any of this work. Glorious. The only quilting I have ever done was a hexagon paper piecing cushion that seemed to take me years to make. So I guess it wasn't quite my thing😂. But I do appreciate the craftsmanship. Enjoyed the craft produced by schools. A better thing to do than stare at a phone. Although now at my age I do quite a lot of that. Thank you Utube 😂 Going to the Knitting and Stitching show at Alexander Palace in October. There are often beautiful quilts there. I look forward to it every time as it's not too far from where I live and I don't travel well. Thank you Ellie. Jensen looks fascinated by the colours. Think that's a good sign. Love Lynne ❤️
