Pluckley Quilt Show

This was in the foyer. What an interesting design.

 I went with friends to the Pluckley Quilt Show for the first time. It was a delightful way to spend a Saturday morning with various interesting and impressive quilts, useful traders and of course delicious homemade cake.

A complex quilt by Inger Milburn using the 52 piece Hill and Crag block.
I benefitted greatly from Inger's classes.

Quilt made by the late Margaret Harrison and for sale, I believe.
