I brought my son and his girlfriend to the Portland airport yesterday and thought I'd go to the
Northwest Quilting Expo since I was in the city.
Cathy Erickson had a display of her Baltimore style applique quilts and they were the finest I've ever seen in person! Enjoy!
Fun quilting motifs. No sashing, but piping!
Some of the blocks were signed
Tiny tiny intricate piecing!
These were no larger than a dime!
This one had some interesting (and confusing) blocks.
Any thoughts about what is in the basket?
It doesn't seem to belong to this quilt. There is also a broderie purse at the top that seems a little out of place.
I love the scallop quilting to fill the background. That is what Beyond the Cherry Tree had too.
Look at this amazing edging!
The inking details in many of the blocks were really fun to see!
Each one was unbelievable! hand micro stippling!
The placement of this block in the quilt was a little tilted. I liked that! See, even these crazy intricate quilts have adorable quirks!
I have to end right there. Nothing more can top these lovelies!
Have a wonderful weekend!!
