More quilts from Festival of Quilts

I thought I'd show a few pictures of some of the quilts that particularly caught my eye at the 2014 Auckland Festival of Quilts.  Of course the lighting makes it difficult to get great shots, but I hope you enjoy them anyway.  And I urge you to go to FOQ next year, up close and personal is the best way to view!


Show me the Honey by Rebecca Owen, hand-quilted and machine quilted by Judi Schon


Brainwaves by Robyn Rognstad


Caravan Quilt by Val Williams


Enchantment by Debbie Jones, Dragonfly Studio - Enchantment pattern


Pyjama Party by Annie White


Road Block by Annie White, 


Faceless Comrades by Alison Laurence

I wish I'd had more time to spend looking and browsing.  One thing I learnt - interviews take longer than you think!  But here are some blogs with more photos if you want to browse:

  5. You got some good photo's, it was a strange light in there and some of the large quilts didn't want to be smaller to fit into my photo's! You were super good and got names etc, I was a bad girl, I forgot that special detail.

  6. Thanks for including my quilt :). It is interesting to see which other quilts those who enjoyed my quilts like! I quite liked "Enchantment" so it's good to see that one here too
