Festival of Quilts
I always say that travel is the best judge of character, because something always happens, and how one deals with it says a lot about one's character. Well, this last week was one of those travel experiences for Sophie and I. Lost luggage, lost laundry, broken wifi - we just had to laugh. However our experience with the quilters at the Festival of Quilts in Birmingham UK has been stellar, and it was wonderful to introduce Sophie to our eQuilter friends across the pond. We especially enjoyed visiting with the Tentmakers of Cairo, and our European SAQA members. On the last day there is always a Cosplay conference (This year is Outlander) and an Indian wedding in this hotel, so the combination of wedding saris, cosplay geeks, and fabriholic quilters, makes for a wild weekend.
As always, I took photos of my favorite quilts, and you'll see these popping up on my photo pages in the next week or two after I return home. Our return flights are tomorrow - we'll be home Sunday evening. I think Sophie was surprised at how many people she knew at this event. It is a small world we occupy - the International Quilting Tribe circles the globe and reconvenes at these events like annual family reunions. As many of us have been coming for 10 or 20 years, now we bring our daughters, and new kinds of talents are being revealed by the younger generation.
Tonight one of our quilting friends is driving us to Stratford to the Royal Shakespeare Theater. We'll be seeing the Merry Wives of Windsor - a fitting end to our week in England! Sophie starts school Thursday so we'll be back to a school schedule in a few days. We'll have some big news to share in the next few weeks - stay tuned!
sharing your Passion for Fabric...
