Wow.....great job! So many baskets. Your guild puts all others to shame in the basket arena. I have never seen such a collection. Love the fabric pool idea and will share it with the next show chairman here. But the Tea Room is fabulous! Our venue does not have the space for this, but I do think it is a wonderful idea. Your boutique puts most guild boutiques to shame too! I would have loved to dig in there. Wow, the quilts are beautiful, and I like the dark sheeting behind them. Much better than white.
Every thing is sooo amazing Linda. And all looks gorgeous. I love the quilts, the baskets, the Tea Room and the fact that there are bags of fabric for sale. I sure wish the guild in my county would do something like this.I know it was a lot of work, but it was well worth all the effort. Just awesome!
LOVE the fabric pool idea - what a great way to purge the stash for the benefit of the guild. Congrats on all the work to make this happen - it looks like it was a terrific event!!
Thanks for all the photos, I loved seeing the show. And it looks like your group went all out to do it right!
Linda - your show looks wonderful! I especially like the "fabric pool" and the black background for the quilts - it really shows them off well - ;))
Looks like a successful show - so many beautiful quilts, and I can't imagine how many vintage tablecloths and napkins you had to collect to make that tea room so charming.
nest to the bottom photo, bottom quilt in it, isn't that the quilt you made with one of your grands?? I really like the tea room. At our quilt show, one of the groups from the school we use serves things like hot dogs. Not nearly as appetizing. We do have a large baked goods table we can get sweets from.
