Minot Quilt Festival 2017

Minot Quilt Festival was a great time! 
Bees were the theme this year 
These were all the gifts we received at each meal!!
A bee pin...
A little jar of honey 
Mini pot holders 
These are some of the quilts I loved!! 
 
 

Funny how the carpet looks like this quilt 

I feel like I am starting to lean towards some modern quilting!
 

 I took some great classes!!

This one was on Y seams 

 It was a light bulb moment and won't be scared any more!!

The class on featherweights was super informative
She had a lot of attachments 
The colour theory was very helpful 
 
There were hundreds(really) of fabulous door prizes!
 
Trudi won this great bag made by Ghana women
Yes....I won my fair share too!! 
 
The trunk show was by Susan K Cleavland 
 
We were fortunate enough to meet her in Houston
 
She is zesty and enthusiastic!  
Her quilts and techniques reflect how fun she is! 
Best of all,
 it was a great weekend with some girlfriends! 
 
 Our rooms are booked for next years fun! 
 
Thanks for all the fun...Trudi and Charlene!
