Malvern

Aisle of quilts, general view

After our Chesterfield holiday we stayed 2 nights in Malvern to attend the wonderful quilt show. It was very busy and I withdrew from the throng at midday to attend a screen printing mini workshop with Kate Andre ably assisted by her husband which was a very good introduction with lots of different screens and colours and an efficient cleaning up and drying (Hairdryer) operation. I was impressed by the results.

I didn't have a quilt in the show but my friend Margaret had two in the theme section which I think was explosion of colour. She constructs in sections which are joined together by exquisite stitching and beading.

I like her choice and arrangement of colors and the yellow sashing really ties it all together. Looks like you got in a good workshop too.
