On the weekend I visited my first this fall. It was hosted by the Yorkshire Rose Quilter's Guild. I am on the look out for possible submissions that are more traditional for the show I am curating in France.
There were many beautiful quilts exhibited. Coral presented two works she started in Verona. She was one of the Verona Trip travellers from March 2010. She learned these new techniques there and finished the works here. Brava!

| Scrap quilt project taught by Roberta Bugli in Verona No new fabric was bought for this! How good does that feel! |

The 9 patch is one of my favorite blocks! It's so versatile. I teach it as a first quilt.
 |
| This quilt was made using blocks from the 9 patch exchange I initiated with my guild last year. It was made by Marg, another Verona Trip traveller! |
I was happy to see many works from quilters that have taken classes from me. It is satisfying to see completed quilts started in my classes.

5-4-3-2-1- the countdown series shown below. No new fabric can be purchased to create the quilts in these classes. What a challenge! But these students did great!
The next show I plan to go to is the Rouge Valley Quilters' Guild Show, October 15-16, 2011. On November 11,12 13 the members of York Heritage Quilters Guild will have their work on exhibit.
