Festival of Quilts 2012

 British/German Stash exchange
Quilters from the British and German guilds exchanged fabric from their stash' and challenged each other to make a quilt with their received package, adding some of their own fabrics. The quilts were to be 32" long and 16" wide. 60 of the quilts were chosen to go on display at the  FOQ (30 from each country)
Congratulations to Wendy for her entry, which was one of the 30 chosen quilts from Britain.

Apologies for the angle of the shot, the quilt was hanging on the top row, quite high up! A delightful quilt nonetheless. Well done Wendy.

Traders/Exhibitors
From Aarti J Beads & Trim to Zigzags the Main Hall was filled with everything a patchworker and quilter could wish for and more besides. 
Congratulations to Yvette, her Needle and Thread stand looked lovely and was very busy throughout the four days.
