MIAMI VALLEY QUILT GUILD SHOW

I attended the MVQG Quilt Show on 

May 30, 2026

Oh my, what a funtastic show!

Something a little wonky!

Perhaps inspired from my

Let's Get Wonky Trunk show?

I thought this was a Modern-Traditionalist looking design.

 A combo of a wedding ring

surrounded by a unique border.

Loved the simplicity of this one

and the primary colors

This was a favorite of mine.  I loved the colors which leaned modern

with lots of blocks from a designer series.

This New York Beauty design. Was indeed a beauty!

 A wonderful sampler quilt that uses fabric selvedges!

This Red White and Blue Star Quilt was unique.

All the stars were outlined with French knots!

This bee quilt was lovely.  

Made by a grandmother for her grandaughter

a Junior Bee-keeper!

Ahhh this baby elephant stole my heart!

I enjoyed the simplicity here with the colors setting up the design.

NOT every quilt has to be ROCKET SCIENCE!

Some fabulous ART QUILTS!

The tractor took me back to the farm as a child.

Stunning landscape design in this one!

And this flower...was as beautiful as the quilting on it!

I love a good use of a log cabin scrappy block!

The twists on this one leaned to a modern vibe!

A black background really sets off the vibrant colors of this quilt.

I love that the maker took a chance on this combo of colors.

STUNNING!

Another log cabin block leaning to a modern feel

in both color choices and block layout.

This was a great way of using colors on a low volume background.

Modern-Traditionalist feel 

Many vendors added to the fun and 

subtracted money from my wallet!

I love a well-planned and put together show.

NEW LOCAL YARN SHOP FELT SO BLUE!

Alpine BLUE stitches was amazing!

The owner Robert was so darn cute!

Don't ya love his blue hair!

Located in Grove City, OH

it's a short drive around the Outer belt

for me to get there! About 20 minutes or so!

The house is just darling!

So let's go in!

This yarn is from a local indie dyer!

Dye Mad Yarns

Knitting Nook

Look at this FIREPLACE mural

FIBERLICIOUS!

A quick stop to look back and 

one thing is for sure...

I will be back!

And oh yeah, I didn't leave empty handed!

FUN FOLD CARDS

I love making cards.

I hosted a luncheon for 3 of my friends

who are excellent makers.

This one is designed by

Robin Allen

And this one is a hoot!

inside greeting reads

"So I ate it" and there's a floating feather.

I designed some Dragonfly cards.

Debbe Sewertsein designed these two

And Vikki Almos

designed these beauties.

THE ‘GO WITH GOD’ BAG

Over the Christmas Holidays

I began making A Place for Everything Bag.

BY Annie

The first time I saw it another Quilter had made it.

I said, " Oh my…I have to make that bag."

She replied "Go With God!"

That scared me but also intrigued me.

Sew I began gathering all the pieces and parts

to begin this challenge!

I knew I wanted to use some OOP Ghastlies Fabrics 

That didn’t have the characters on them.

I broke it down into sections that I knew I had the skill set to finish.

Like cutting and labeling the pieces

Lots of pieces and parts to this one.

I was taking it very slow.

I quilted everything that needed quilted.

Made the biased binding.

Some new skills for me, like zipper tape

And putting in the slides.

LOTS of sticky notes just trying to stay organized.

I went slow and didn’t sew on it every day.

It’s coming along, sorta!

I’ll stopped to work on other projects.

I'll get back to it…

GHASTLIES NATION

There's a flag that needs to fly high

over Ghastlies Manor, in Ghastlies Nation!

and I plan to make that idea

into a fun quilt with Ghastlies fabric!

I'll use the Stars and Stripes pattern

by Thimbleblossoms.

I just love all the Basketweaves that AH fabrics

have made to go along with all the wonderful

Ghastlies prints.

Just laying out the ideas

keeps me happy and well, quite Ghastlie!

This should be sewn as my first project,

next Kwilty Girls retreat in April, 2026!
