  • Come and join us the Festival of quilts 2023. The footage was taken on Friday 4th August. The first part of the video shows the main Gallery. Then a little bit of the stalls and then the winners gallery. I tried to take footage of the designers information as well so you can find them. Although there was so much there, some footage is taken to give you the idea of the atmosphere. For more information on the show visit www.thefestiva...

    This show was a real pleasure to watch without yakety yakking and taking your time to actually look at the quilts and in close up, to show the magnificent quilting, and the skill of the quilt maker, was done superbly. the quality of these quilts was magnificent. We have a quilt Show here on the Oregon Coast but not with the quality as shown here. Just marvelous, well done!

    I’m watching this from Australia a year later. I watched Kate’s (@thelasthomelyhouse) version a year ago and enjoyed it. You are showing me a different perspective and I’m thrilled to bits! You just popped up in my feed and since I’ve missed all my Aussie shows I thought I’d have a look. Thank you for this. I’m so intrigued by the wonderful creative minds and what an eclectic variety of traditional and modern plus the art quilts!
    Many thanks for filming the show. Chris from Brisbane Australia 🇦🇺 ❤❤❤😊😊😊

    Wow! So much talent on show. Think my favorite is the sewing machine. Just stunning! It was good to see so much seating available. Some of the shows I’ve been to have had no seating. I must commend you on your filming and editing skills Ellie. 👏👏👏. Looks like Jenson enjoyed himself too. 😊❤

  • @lynnesanders8215
    @lynnesanders8215 Před rokem +1

    This work is beyond my comprehension. I think if I had another lifetime I would never be able to produce any of this work. Glorious.
    The only quilting I have ever done was a hexagon paper piecing cushion that seemed to take me years to make. So I guess it wasn't quite my thing😂. But I do appreciate the craftsmanship. Enjoyed the craft produced by schools. A better thing to do than stare at a phone. Although now at my age I do quite a lot of that. Thank you Utube 😂
    Going to the Knitting and Stitching show at Alexander Palace in October. There are often beautiful quilts there. I look forward to it every time as it's not too far from where I live and I don't travel well.
    Thank you Ellie.
    Jensen looks fascinated by the colours. Think that's a good sign.
    Love Lynne ❤️

    Hi dear Ellie - that was soooo good! Such inspiring work and wonderful to see how alive our world of crafts is 😊 it’s just amazing that I can sit here at home on a small island to the south of the big island of Australia and view beautiful work from the other end of the world! Another plus - I can’t buy a single thing, or can I? Hmmm - I can always look at the websites of some of those beautiful stands 😂
