After an early start and three pickup points, our coach arrived at the NEC about 11.00 on Thursday. I am not sure if it was my imagination, but the exhibition seemed larger than in previous years with a wonderful selection of quilts on display and, of course, all the traders who were eager to relieve us of our money.
Christine with her Fine Art Quilt Masters
On behalf of the group I would like to congratulate Christine Seager who had two quilts on display, one on the Contemporary Quilt stand and the second was chosen to be included in the Fine Art Quilt Masters. What a truly fantastic achievement, well done Christine!
Christine’s second quilt is displayed in the picture below on the left.

It was fun to bump into friends, to spot textile artists who had visited us in the past or who were well known faces in the textile world.
Here is a selection of quilts which I particularly liked. If you have a photo of your favourite, email me a copy and I will add it.
Have a good summer and I look forward to meeting up with you all again in September.
