Here are some more quilts from the International Festival of Quilts in Houston, TX. I just wish I had taken my better camera, but at least you can get a pretty good idea of some of the quilts that I liked best. There were so many and my battery ran down. In fact my phone went totally dead. Lesson learned - bring better camera.
The description of these next two quilts was too blurry to read unfortunately, so I don't know their names.
It would have taken days to really study all the quilts to see how they were made, etc. and I only had a few hours, but it was a wonderful few hours! I hope you enjoyed a glimpse of the festival.

Can you imagine having to judge that show?!! I know every time I go and look at all those absolutely fantastic quilts, I think to myself "why do I even bother"!! HA But I don't know how you could pick winners there.
