2011 Houston International Quilt Show, day 2

A beautiful appliqued quilt.


This quilt is just full of the hexagon shape. My hubby thought it looked more like a rug than a quilt. He didn't see it in person, however, just made the comment from seeing the picture.



There was an exhibit of appliqued quilts. The picture below shows detail from a very large appliqued quilt that is shown below this one. Lots of work went into this.















As usual, the quilt shows include a large number of International quilters. I liked this one.










Notice the quilting -- this quilt would be nothing without it, and would give a totally different feel with a different quilting pattern.











Sorry this is dark -- these are 4-H quilts. My quilting friend, M, used to be in 4-H and said she could never have made quilts like these at that age.
