AQU Quilt Show - Journey

I just happened to be in the right place a the right time.

I am currently in Southwest Florida and was able to attend the
 Art Quilters Unlimited
Quilt Show
  I took tons of photos...but I won't make you suffer through them all today. But I do want to show you the ones that have techniques that I would like to try in my own art quilts.

First up is this wonderful piece with over 200 different batik scraps..... 

and look at her handmade beads. I have made these beads before but in order to pull this off the beads must all be exactly the same size. I'll need to practice some more. 

I love the fringe 

Next I love these two and how she took one idea and made two quilts with different fabrics.

Another good way to use up scraps. 

That's it for today. It's a sunny day here and I don't want spend all my time indoors.

I do have my sewing machine with me and I am working on some mugrugs and a small art quilt for some swaps....I'll be back later this week to show you.

Have a wonderful day !
