Brisbane Quilt and Craft Show

I had a lovely time at the show with my mum on Thursday. I planned to spend up to $50 on stuff but went over a bit and had to put a couple of things on eftpos. There were just too many wonderful things. I collected a few more ribbons for my stash and some cute washi tapes and a tiny quilt stand.

Then I got some owl earring charms and a cat pendant charm and cute little handbag zipper pull charms.

Washi tape owls and cat. Forgot to put the zipper pulls out.

Finally I got what I went for and that was a a couple of sets of handbag handles and  two little purse frames. At $13 all up I can play around with them and not feel that I have to justify $16 handles by making the perfect bag to go with them.

The quilts were amazing. The best in show quilt was beautifully hand sewn and hand quilted.

There were quite a few that I really liked. Here are just a couple.

The Applique on this one by Kathy Adams was just perfect.

I loved the colour and design of this one by Marilyn Thompson

Happy Quilting,
