We did a brief write up on our visit to Quilts UK on the site (http://bit.ly/quiltsuk) but there were just so many amazing quilts that caught our eye so we decide to show case a few of them here for you all to enjoy. First of all though please let me say that it was hard to do justice to these quilts with just a photo, the depth of colours and intricacies of the designs were absolutely stunning! If you didn't make it this time i'd strongly recommend visitinng the autumn show.

I enjoy these photos of quilts in japan.I love the first one.
ReplyDeleteThe Japanese ones were my personal favourites too, and they had lovely Japanese fabrics there - but I couldn't afford any unfortunetly. Maybe next year
