This was the 40th anniversary show of one of our local Rochester Guilds and it was really quite spectacular!! The highlight of the show was the presentation of 50 red and white quilts. This had been a challenge made by the president. They were obviously all different sizes and a few of these follow.
There were a number of really well done quilts and I did get the names for a lot of them as I know a lot of the people!! This one was done by Pat Berardi who likes curves as much as I do!!
This was done by Charlotte Winkelbauer from a kit.
This is a view of Crater Lake by Elaine Criswell.
This is Glacier Star by Beth Allen. I am sure this is a Judy Niemeyer design.
I loved this piece by Janet Allmatt -- curves of course!!
This is a piece by Jenna Darlak -- I believe I took a course from the woman that taught this pattern but I didn't make this one -- I really like the colors.
This and the next piece were kalaidoscopes done by Sue Parisi and I thought they were just spectacular and definitely my very favorites in the show. One (or maybe both) with be featured in Paula Nadelstern's next book!! Oh, what you can do with bilaterally symmetrical fabric and I may rethink getting rid of all of mine!!
Can you believe how beautiful these quilts are!!!!!
I was also very drawn to Mary Wieser's quilts, of which this is one!! The next several were all hers. She has such a wonderful sense of color and texture!!
I think this was my favorite of her quilts and was done for a recent RAFA exhibit on interpreting photographs into quilts.
These next three quilts I don't have names for but really liked them!
This one was huge and even with my small camera, I couldn't get the whole thing in the picture!!
This was a really spectacular quilt and the quilting was awesome -- I couldn't get a picture to give me the detail I wanted for the quilting though.
This was by Sherri Lasky and I really liked the colors and the simple but very effective design.
This was done by Vicki Coykendall who is a fabulous artist!!
Last but not least is this tote bag which I really liked but done know whether I would have the patience to stuff all the tubes that make up the bag. Not quite sure how she did that!!
I went back to the Webster show for a closer look with my smaller camera. It takes better pictures of things that are close up. I don't have names for any of the quilts nor their makers but they are all members of the Webster Quilt Guild here in Webster New York.
I did partially show this one in the previous post. It is all hand done and is by Ann Nash who does gorgeous work!!
Another one I partially showed in the last post.
This silly gray squirrel was sleeping on the power line right outside the quilt show. I wasn't even sure he was alive but he kept moving around. This is one absurd place to sleep.
I certainly thought this was a unique way to advertise the show.
This was the first quilt that caught my eye at the show. Loved the quilting!
This was a quilt by Peg Oppenheimer which also caught my eye as it was so different. It is basically made with triangles!
Of course I always like penguins!
Butterflies in Free Motion by Jean Cody.
Pennies from Heaven by Terry Antinora.
Pieces of the Past by Sandy Buckman.
Simple bllocks but very striking I thought! I didn't get the names for a number of the quilts so I apologize to the quilters!!
This is just about a quarter of a large exquisite quilt called Batik Farmer's Wife by Cheryl Bond. These blocks were fairly small but not as small as the Dear Jane's.
This small piece and the next large piece were done by Ann Nash who is a magnificent quilter!!
This was called Dresden Garden.
This and the next piece were done as part of a NY Quilters Consortium challenge called Lines and Angles. Sadly there were no quilt names or people's names associated with the quilts!
Of course I had to include bird picture called Baby Robins by Cynthia Flemming.
I couldn't resist the owls called Three Wise Guys by Pat Hogan!
It was a gorgeous morning and spring appears to be here with our Magnolia blooming with a back drop of our rare blue skies!
The white trillium are out as well in the back yard. I never tire of this wildflower!
