In October traveled to Brisbane for an appointment and I was so pleased to be able to stay with a fellow blogger and friend Susan “oh2sew” and it just so happened the Stitches and Craft Fair was on that week. We had a lovely time. I also caught up with a few more Brisbane bloggers and stitchers like Linda , Maureen ,Cheryl, Fiona and Michelle. Over the last 12 months I have been to Brisbane a few times and these ladies have had sewing dates which they’ve invited me to join . They have made me feel so welcome and that’s the beauty of blog and quilting friends.
The Queensland Quilters had a quilt show at the fair. There were many beautiful quilts on display. I have picked 2 of my favourites to show you. I just love the colours and shapes in this quilt. The name “Perseverance” is very apt. It certainly would take it to complete squch a task. The other quilt just jumped right off the wall and got in your face. There was a gallery of quilts and then the was The Queen of Rubies”. How quirky and bold is she? Must be the season for quirky because the pizza quilts certainly fell into that category. A little fun with scraps I would say. Then of course there was a little shopping.

Wow! Perseverance is amazing. I had a laugh at the pizzas. Looks like you had a great time.
drooling over perseverance...i love all kim mclean's patterns and this one is no exception...
What fun. Yep, Perseverance is the right title. A few treasures to take home as well.
Those quilts are beautiful! What a wonderful show! The kits you bought look like fun, happy stitching!
It was lovely catching up again....I loved the pizza idea too.
