GVQC May Meeting

 

This and the following quilts are only a few of the 35 comfort quilts that were turned in -- I had four of the neonatal quilts in the lineup!
 

















This and the following quilts were all part of a presentation on the Language of Flowers by Linda Hunter from Lockport New York.  She had a number of vintage quilts.  This was not all the quilts she showed.



















This was done by the Egpytian tentmakers and was stunning!
It is all appliqued on canvas.




The following are a few of the show and tell quilts.  For some reason, the people carrying them only held them up  on the left side of the stage and then folded them up rather than carrying them across the stage so I didn't get picture of many of them.  This one was done by Ruth Ohol and I am sorried I didn't get a better picture. as it was gorgeous as all her work is!!


This is an example of a stack and whack that will be taught at our Fall Migration workshop in October.

This was made by one of our few male quilters in the club.



Each month we have a raffle quilt and this was this month's.  Sadly I didn't win it as it was beautiful!


This is the incredibly gorgeous raffle quilt for this year.  It won an Honorable Mention at the Paducah Quilt Show.  Tickets are still available and will also be sold at our show which is next weekend starting on Friday May 17 and continung through March 19 at the Rcchester Institute of Technology Field House.  There will be 64 vendors and hundreds of beautiful quilts from all over!
