Rosewood Quilt Show
Although Saturday was so dismal with the rain & cold i had a great day out. Pammi & i headed out to Rosewood for the quilt show. Joy & Nikki joined us there for more fun & laughter. Also chatted to Cath who had a stall there. Lots of beautiful quilts there on display.
Love this hexagon quilt. The hexagons are all 1/2"
This is the label attached.
Olive was sitting here during the day piecing this stunning hexagon quilt. I forgot to ask how many she had pieced together already but i can tell you they are 1/2" hexagons.
Drunkards Path is another favourite of mine.
So many beautiful quilts on display. Just too many to photograph all so this is just a small selection to view. Also on display were other handcrafts by the Rosewood ladies but it was this bedspread that caught my eye.
All crocheted.

What a fun day jeanette and you got some beautiful pics,i cannot believe Olive's quilt i thought it was a tapestry,how clever.
Yes there were some beautiful quilts at the show. Olive didn't know how many hexagon where in her quilt. I didn't take my camera so I didn't get photos of the quilts that I loved. I know alot were appliqued ones. Next time will leave Denis at home and I can stay longer. LOL
Goes to show a beautiful quilt can brighten even the yukkiest of days. Beautiful photos and I think Olives quilt is devine...words fail me!
