Liked how she used decorative stitches across the chains for quilting lines.
Funny with the felt Cheez-its. Amazing detail and three dimensional.
Loved this. Blue ribbon for "Best use of color"

PIQF
This past weekend my
daughter, a friend and I went to the Pacific International QuiltFestival. It was fantastic, overwhelming, too large to absorb in one
day. My daughter took almost 200 photos, she usually takes a photo of
the quilt, then another of the info card; so I have lots of photos to
post. So here are some of the quilts we enjoyed.

Thanks for sharing some photos of PIQF. I haven't been for about 8 years, and sometimes I miss going to see the quilts. It is completely overwhelming and mind-boggling. Lots of photos and time to peruse them later is a big help. You can review them in small bites!
Love the first one - wonderful Improv - and the last one - fantastic colors and color shift in this quilt! - the best, but they're all super.
Decorative stitches don't always feed well through the layers so she had a big task quilting that way. It does look nice. It looks like it was a great show.
When I read posts like this it always makes me wish I get get to the US to visit some of these shows for myself. Since that's not happening, I'm so grateful to be able to enjoy the photos instead.
