Maine Quilts, quilts I liked!
OK…for the final installment of my Maine Quilts 2009 review, here are some quilts that I just thoroughly enjoyed. I wish I had had enough time to snap a close-up of the labels to give proper credit to all the quilters! Enjoy this last romp. Next, I’ll give you some close-ups of the quilted version of Be Inspired…stay tuned!
Coastal Quilters (my local chapter) didn’t have as many quilts this year, but what we did have was wonderful…Mathea’s quilt of her husband and son was in an earlier post, and here is Louisa Enright’s glorious NY Beauty…she picked and chose from various patterns, drafted her own blocks, and designed the whole shebang…glorious!
The Coastal Quilters also had another fun, 10×10 inch Grab Bag challenge…you had to use EVERYthing (at least a little bit) of everything in your bag. I suggested we also add a strip to show what we got so folks could understand where each of us began and where we ended up:
Another chapter, the Crazy Quilters, had a tea cozy challenge…think I can convince CQ to do that one year?
then, there are quilts I just plain liked. One of the judges liked this one, too….and (oddly?) it had no regular ribbon, but DID receive (a well-deserved, I think) Judges’ Choice ribbon:
A Hawaiian style quilt that I loved:
And some fun other ones:
