Pauline Burbidge

One of my favorite quilters is Pauline Burbidge a Scottish quilter . You can see a video of her taken at the Birmingham Quilt show just last month. She is talking about her work and her influences. We talked alot about that this past workshop with Quilting Adventures. I hope you enjoy viewing this.

Festival of Quilts 2009 Birmingham UK

I am just going to start blogging pictures of quilts I took at the Festival of Quilt show. I hope you enjoy them as I post. These are some of the small 12” x 12” quilts for the Contemporary Quilt Group Celtic Connections.

Walks in the Woods

Recently a favorite quilt of mine, the original "Walks in the Woods", was blogged about at
Del Quilts. I sold this quilt right after it was made and never got a really great picture of it. That just goes to show you that you should always photo quilts right after they are finished. Anyway I hope you enjoy reading about it.

Clanadonia

This is a group called Clanadonia that we saw preform on the street in Edinburgh at the On the Fringe Festival. They were great to watch. One of my favorite authors is Dianna Gabaldon, her series the Outlander takes place in Scotland and is about an 18th century kilt wearing Highlander. Brett just thought I liked the look of these rough and tumble Scottish men, he was probably right.

Hickory Nuts

 

 

 

This relates to nothing at all, except that I love the way the sun played with shadow on these Hickory Nuts I brought up from the woods for the squirrels that live in the tree in my backyard.
