Quilt Show, Old Friends, New Friends

The quilt show was in this amazing exhibition hall.  It was a beautiful building.

The quilt show was pretty much just like our quilt shows... and I did have to work. 

Michelle is a store rep from Perth.  She came to the states last year and we had a great time teasing each other about how we talk. She's the one who talked Jerry into the Kangaroo steak.  She gave me lots of advice and encouragment for the classes I had to teach.

This is Helen Godden.  An amazing Australian quilter that we met there and spent the week having a great time with.  She and Michelle together  make for a lot of laughs.

This is Helen's quilt, Seasonal Sisters tht she made with a couple of other quilters.
This bird was her entry in the Best of Australia.  She was chosen Best of State for this quilt and we all went to the big Formal Celebration where the winner was announced to cheer for her , but a more traditional quilt won.
