Mennonite quilt Show

Yvonne and I attended the MQS at 10 Thousand Villages on Wpg. We enjoyed visiting with Pearl who was the featured quilter at the show. She had on display an incredible variety of quilts almost all of which are hand quilted!! Amazing!

We also enjoyed the variety of quilts on display for the show. One of my favorites was of Inuit kids being tossed into the air in the Blanket Toss game. The quilter bought the quilt kit in Alaska while on a west coast cruise.

Other favorites are included in the photos attached. Enjoy.

Pearl and Yvonne having a laugh.  
Notice all the beautiful quilts of Pearl's in the background.  All hand quilted!!
