All In A Day's Work - Quilt Exhibition

All Saints Catfield (off the A149 north of Great Yarmouth in Norfolk, UK)
We are all set up for our Modern and Retrospective exhibition which runs till Monday - 10 till 4 each day..
I'm showing my Trees In The Landscape set, and some of my Modern Quilts, Heather has a Retrospective, and as she is always busy, all her new Modern stuff, too, and the usual Old sewing machine.. Oh, and lots of nice things from Hampshire..
Plus, tea, coffee, ridiculous amounts of home-made cake, and at least 3 other Quilt or Flower exhibitions locally..
All in the lovely setting of the Norfolk Broads, what more can you require?

Veldhoven, Sunday

 Well, I'm please with this show altogether.  I sold a lot of small stuff and a Big Quilt (more on that tomorrow) and got a lot of nice comments..
And the free-hanging quilts are interesting - see above for light coming through from the "wrong" side

 My Trees 9 from the back.. Needs a better title, I think

 The estimable and wonderfully skilled Barbara Chainey  is here (follow the link to her blog with more Veldhoven news) and this delicious sample adorned her demo table

 Quite hard to photo, but I adore the spirals..

 And the leaves

These two quilts are from an astonishing collection by Colette Berends from The Netherlands.  They are quite unlike any quilts I have ever seen - very good drawing, extremely vivid and glittering colours, and these big fabric frames.. The above is Carlo En Ricardo, below is Foret Bleu. They are mostly the sort of size you expect paintings to be..

 This piece is by my charming and extremely Parisian neighbour in the hall, Ina Georgeta Statescu.  She was teaching next door to me on Thursday, and her quilts are exquisite, but hard to photograph as they are so subtle..

My evening was perfected by a completely undisturbed swimming-pool which I had to myself, and a very good dinner..

More tomorrow
