thanks for the pictures, it's always such a pleasure to look at such
marvellous quilts. Won't make it to a quiltshow this year,
so I really enjoy those links :-))

For those who care to look - these are pics from the quilt
show in Melbourne (Victoria, Australia) last week held by
Vic Quilters Inc. And before anyone asks, I checked and was
told it was OK to use a camera. However, as I suspect that
at least some of the quilts will be published I do not plan
to leave these pics up on Webshots - just long enough for
my rctq friends to take a look. So if you have time, take a
look (there are 100 pics). I came away feeling terribly
inadequate.

As always some of the quilting did not show up well, but
there were some great whole cloth-style quilts this year.
My personal favourite quilt was 1503. It was labelled as
having taken 17000hours. I am not sure which was scarier -
that it took that long or that the maker kept track lol.
But it was GORGEOUS!! That is all applique and IRL it looks
like an illuminated manuscript. I wish I had a close up to
show. I think it was based on an architectural feature
(tile, carpet, similar?). The "white" lines are about 3/8"
to give some scale.
I went on the first day and checked about photos, and then
asked a friend to take some shots for me. So big "Thanks"
to Krys.
