Alison Pearson, 'Woven Shadows'
























Tatyana Duffie, 'Christmas Lights'


















Meadow Quilters Take Five made 'Starshine'
























'Ah, hvilken snerleduft', by Janne Juul


















SAQA (Studio Art Quilt Associates) had a number of of quilts on the theme: Metaphors on Ageing
Here is Sunset Wonder by Linda Evans





































Artwork: 'Purple Palette'



















Linda Forey's 'Full Circle'


















Sweden contributed to the EQA (European Quilt Association) Gallery 2013 with these triangles. You can read who has made which vedge.





































And now dear readers, it is time to take a hint from this cat, obviously stitched with Metler thread and on display at the Cats' Protection' stand.
Many apologises for not making a note of the maker's name.

Anyway, it is a lovely quilt, and it has inspired me to climb into bed, too.

Ps. she can't be a cat princess; there is no pea underneath the bottom cushion!

      Sunset Wonder was a crowd stopper but hung so that not many people passed by, unfortunately. I tell you it GLOWED!

    Really enjoyed all this series, and seeing all the quilts :) I'm not a quilter, but the love of beautiful fabrics and threads crosses all craft boundaries, doesn't it? ;)

      I am glad you enjoyed the quilts. More and more quilts are now being decorated with embroidery and fancy stitches.
