At PIQF 2007, and at any quilt show, there is always an award called Viewer's Choice.Anybody who attends can vote for the quilt they like the most.
The above quilt did not win viewer's choice at PIQF in 2007. In fact, it actually didn't win a ribbon at all.
However, because this is after all my own personal blog, with my own personal opinions, this quilt is by far my personal "viewer's choice."
It was made by Kiyoko Nakahara, of Japan. I was stunned by the beautiful hand work. Full picture of the quilt in my next post.
At PIQF there were lots of cool shops. Some of the ones I liked the most:
Quilt Crafts - notions like you would not even believe. I found my favorite zipper pull by clover here. Some of you asked where to get it, so wonder no longer.
Also found at Quilt Crafts booth was my FAVORITE tool for applique - it keeps you from burning your fingers as you preform your quilt shapes.
Pearl's Applique and Pressing Tool: $15.95
Oh so much more to share on the topic of PIQF 2007....stay tuned.
thanks for your kind comments on my blog. I've wanted to reply a few times, but without an email its hard to hold a "conversation"... Your continued encouragement do mean a lot though :-)
ReplyDeleteI don't remember this quilt, so I am excited to see the whole thing. I took lots of photos, but forgot to jot down the names and titles of the creators! Something for me to remember for next year!
