Quiltcon 2020 – Part 2

I am unpacked now and almost in my everyday routine. But though this time I took homeopathic medicine to prevent jetlag I still haven’t totally recovered … Is it just me ?! Anyway the trip was worth it 🙂 Mes valises sont défaites maintenant et je suis presque revenue à ma routine habituelle. Mais bien que j’aie pris cette fois de l’homéopathie pour prévenir les effets du décalage horaire, je n’ai toujours pas totalement récupéré … Est-ce que c’est juste moi ?!

Quiltcon 2020 – Part 1

Hey! I am back from my trip to Quiltcon that was held in Austin – Texas this year. Not totally recovered from all the excitement of the show and jetlag. I feel a little less like a zombie today anyway … Quiltcon is a great show but most importantly a place where you can catch up with friends. I had three quilts in the show and my LOVE quilt was the perfect backdrop for a photo shoot with my friends Kathy, Sarah, Marla and Sophie. Hé! Je suis de retour de mon voyage à Quiltcon qui avait lieu cette année… +

Quiltcon 2019 – Two Color Quilts

For this second post about Quiltcon 2019 (you can read the first one here), I chose to share quilts made with only two or three fabrics or colours, which is something I particularly enjoyed at this year show.

Quiltcon 2019 – The fun part

I hope you won’t be bored of seeing my face since it is a lot-of -me-pictures kind of post … 🙂 These four days at Quiltcon have been a whirlwind ! The fun already started at pre-registration, the evening before the show opens, since I met a few friends while waiting in the queue for getting my name tag. The ceremony awards was held right after and I was particularly anxious to attend it. I got an email ten days before to let me know that two of my quilts were awarded. I was surprised to receive the first prize… +
