I have just spent a delightful morning at a quilt show run by Kerenza Quilters, a local quilting group, which was held in Kea Church. This is a most delightful venue and although the church isn’t all that old; the date on the porch is 1837; it is a delightful church and full of charm.
The quilts on show were delightful and the setting of the church really showcased their charms.
I particularly liked the way the hessian shopping bags had been enlivened with applique. The fabric journal covers also stood out as worthy of note as did several other smaller items including this cat.
Here are a few of the other exhibits which caught my eye which I found quite inspiring. I loved the numerous and varied postcards.
And so as not to be totally off topic there was a lovely arrangement of flowers in the entrance porch and vistas of trees behind the graveyard. The church itself was worthy of note so here are a few pictures. All in all it was a good morning which we much enjoyed. Especially the coffee and cake!
And to end with a quilt on topic!
Hi Valeri! It looks like you had a wonderful morning. Thank you for showing us interesting quilts. I like the lady riding a bike. The church is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteVal... very nice display. I am sure you really enjoyed the show.
ReplyDeleteI just wrote a blog about quilt gardens. The gardens are planted to look like quilt patterns.

the journal covers are really really pretty!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed my visit to the quilt show...I'd never seen quilted postcards before....was fascinated by them. Thanks for including the pictures of the church...I've always liked stained glass and old cemeteries.
