Quilt Festival in Exeter - Saints and Stitches

My final post about the Spring Quilt Festival at Westpoint, Exeter last weekend.

This time I'd like to show you some "Stitched Art" by two of the Textile Maids.
These two are Cornish Cream and Seed Bank by Sue Hooper

And these are Autumn Night and Poison by Margaret Garood

Two people with very different styles - both very thought provoking.

The exhibition was the last chance to see all the Saints of Cornish Churches quilts displayed together. This has been a brilliant effort by South West Quilters with the quilts shown at four different venues in the past year and a half.

This is St Roche by Jackie Hodges

St Adwenna by The Material Girls


St Stephen by Jo Colwill of Cowslip Workshops

and finally St Thomas the Apostle by Flowerpatch Quilters

Just four out of 35 superb quilts.
And a brilliant Spring Quilt Exhibition 2016 for the Westcountry. - Anita x
