St. Davids Church quilt show and sale

Good morning , a little on the wet side this morning but we need the rain so not complaining . I am finally back to share the quilt show that took place a couple of weeks ago in Port Hastings at the little church called St. Davids , a delightful church and a fabulous quilt show .

 A view from the front of the church towards the back , as you can see they make use of all the pews as well as hanging some from the balcony and some rods across the church . Note in the forefront of this photo the tartan woven throws , they are just gorgeous .  
 Who doesn't love a log cabin quilt and this one is stunning .
A perfect quilt for our province .
I thought this one was rather beautiful , it must have been a kit , everything matches so well .
A modern take on Dresdans 
There are no words to describe how incredible these quilts are , both made by Anne Morrell Robinson .
 Again made by Anne Morrell Robinson , such talent and if you had an extra $3000-$4000 you could have taken one of these home .
 There were lots of colouful quilts to buy for the little ones in your life .
Pretty nine patch .
Look up , look wayup and you will see these gorgeous quilts , the one on the right is made by Lesley , the Cuddle Quilter ,she had other quilts in this show as well and worked there everyday ,!
A modern beauty by Karen of Kaholly fame 
Another by Karen :-)
And yet another Karen creation , this one really caught my eye as it uses scraps in such a creative way , love it !!
Not the best photo but this was an interesting art quilt .
I think this is Lesley's quilt , I apologize Lesley I can't remember and I am bad for not keeping notes . It sure is pretty ,
 There were a few of this pattern , Labryinth I think it is called . They tell me it isn't as complicated as it looks .
This gorgeous quilt already had a sold sign on it when we were there , I can see why , it was so well done and all hand quilted , an heirloom for sure .
Love the pinwheels !
 This Celtic knot quilt also sold pretty quickly .
 Some ladies working on a Quilts of Valor Quilt , Lesley and her group made this quilt and are hand quilting it to give to a Veteran . Isn't it lovely .
 They had other things on display other than quilts and this bag caught my eye , love the style of it . The one next to it was especially nice in red , white and navy blue but I couldn't get a decent photo of it . 
 So this is just a small sampling of this lovely show , my friends and I really enjoyed the day and it was wonderful to see Lesley at work :-) 
 Thanks for stopping by today and I hope you enjoyed the show , to see more be sure to pop on over to visit with Lesley , she has a link to a FB page were you can see even more of the show .
