I found lots of wonderful details in the quilts on display at a northeast Ohio show at Lake Farmpark.
Love the little leaves. Yes, the tree is indeed positioned like this on the quilt. It’s on the right side of a center medallion. Note the bird plunging toward earth. It’s the beginning of a theme I noticed when I looked over the pictures I took.
A wonderful 3D pine cone, and another bird.
This bird was hand appliqued by an 88 year old. I think he’s carrying water balloons to pelt the other birds with.
Yet more birds – chickens in this one.
A rather modern negative space treatment in this traditional quilt.
Machine quilting makes a checkerboard around this embroidered teapot.
While this style is so not me, I have a soft spot for vintage hankies like the ones used in this quilt.
Interesting quilting on those!
