Trentham (well Uttoxeter really) 2010

Well, I've just had a great day out at the Trentham Quilt Show (although it was held at Uttoxeter Racecourse as the marque at Trentham collapsed under the weight of snow in February).
So I've taken lots of photos and posted them below for you all to have a look at. It's a great show - not too big - with lots of traders (yes I bought lots) - well worth the effort of visiting if you're local. 
So here are the photos. 
What do you think?

Oh Wow! What interesting quilts! I especially love that second quilt with the little people on the leaf!
Looks like it was a good day out!

Dennis...

...well unfortunately Dennis died last month. Although we were very upset at the time we realise he had a very happy long life (18 years) and he spent his last day in the garden sunning himself . Everyone who came to the house met him - whether they wanted to or not; he was very friendly . So here are a last few photos of him looking like the fat happy orange cat that he was...

At long last ......

At long last it's finished. My first large (96 x 78 inches) quilt. I'm really pleased with the pieced binding. It took a while to finish off - but I really like it. I've still got a bit of tidying up and I need to add a label - but the hard slog is finished. So I feel a bit lost now without a huge quilt to sit and stitch when I fancy. You can see from below I've already got the fabric for my next project from Strawberry Fayre. And yet again it was great service - really fast. I've washed the fabric and now it needs a good press. I also need to make sure I think about how the cut the fabric so I don't end up with lots of bits. The larger pieces I'll piece to make the back.
