Cotton Club Quilt Show 2014

I've spent a lovely couple of days admiring quilts and chatting with friends, at the Cotton Club Quilt Show, in Woodbridge. Here are my favourite quilts, I hope you enjoy looking at these as much as I did. If you click on the pictures you can see a larger image.
This beautiful quilt below is "That's The Point" by Angela Seabrook. The Crown of Thorn blocks are foundation pieced on paper and bordered by flying geese. This was longarm quilted by Daisy May Quilting, which is run by husband and wife team John and Val. They had quilted several quilts that were hanging around the hall, and they all looked superb...

...these wall hangings were stunning - I especially loved the one with the 3-D leaves. The trees ones were designed by Helen Howes. I've been on a "Trees" workshop with Helen a few years ago, and although the quilt top is completed, it's not yet quilted, and now I've seen these I feel very inspired to get mine finished!...

..."Bring Me Sunshine"  by Jan Carlton - using tints, tones and shades of yellow. This was a Sampler Quilt class taught by Helen Hazon. Helen is my quilting buddy, and along with my friend Linda we're off on another little jaunt to Yorkshire to spend a week quilting with Philippa Naylor later in the year - anyway, I met Jan the first time I went on one of these trips, a couple of years ago, so it was lovely to see her again, and to admire her beautiful quilt...

...these two pictures show some close-ups of Jan's beautiful work. She had added some yellow lace to the Grandmother's fan block, and looked so delicate... 

..."Valerie's Garden" by Valerie Winchester, including a close up of this beautiful quilt in muted tones...

...as you know, I do like table runners, and this one looked really great - I'm not sure who it was made by, but the pattern is by Disa Designs. And finally, I couldn't resist a picture of these rather quirky stones, complete with crocheted covers!!
