I visited the Grand Rapids Michigan Quilt Week Show 2019.
Basically, our family had a road trip to New Orlean this year and on our way back home we stopped by at this Quilt Show to visit it and pick up my quilt afterward.
I have never been to a big quilt show before, so I was interested in seeing what it looked like and what kinds of quilts made it into the show.
Well, I like all crafts and handy made stuff and love to see what other people may come up with!
The quilts were made in a very wide variety of styles and techniques. These are photos of some quilts that I liked the most.
No offense to those that are not here - it is just personal taste and preference and you may notice that not all of them are winners! And these wonderful quilts are not in any particular order.
"Sparkling in a Flurry of Blue" by Julie Wells and Amy Schiwa
"The Spinning Reminiscence" by Wei Ling Lian
This one is basically a legend! So I was very curious to see it in real life and it was awesome!
"Corona II Solar Eclipse" by Caryl Bryer Fallert-Gentry
"Skin Spots" by Rosalind Daniels
"Rise Up" by Jenny Hutson
"A Very Blustery day" by Marian McCoin
"Bruges, Belgium-Canal 6" by Ruth Rohlfing
Oh! Found mine!
" 'Cross Canada " by Tatiana Oleychenko
Pardon my appearance - it is a second week on the road ...
"Ladies of the Sea" by Shirley Tchou
"Tangled Up In Blue" by Britni Craft and Chelce Detert
"Spot On!" by 2. Gail Stepanek and Jan Hutchison
Best of the show : absolutely stunning!
" Eternal Beauty" by Sherry Reynolds
The borders left me speechless! Such a clever neat design!
"Zenith " by Cassandra Ireland Beaver
" Acadia’s Own: Cobblestone Bridge" by Barbara Binotto
" Blue Anemone" by Andrea Brokenshire
" Tai Chi" by Tsui-Hua Chen
" Daybreak is Your Midnight" by Pam Geisel
" Green Summer" by Kim Kyungil
" Light in Darkness" by Christine Staver
" Sumeg Village" by Angie Tustison
"Tree trolls" by Marilyn Belford
"Ookpik" by Colette Dumont
"Sunrise at Beartown" by Nelly Vileikis
All and all it was a great show and I really liked it!
P.S. my only complaint is that not all quilts had a tag with a description containing information such as how the authors came to this idea, what techniques were used, how they came up with this technique, threads, materials, etc.
