Quilt Fest of Jacksonville 2015 ~ Part 1

While in Florida last week on the Daytona coast, we spent a rainy day checking out quilt shops.
During that treck, I discovered the Quilt Fest in Jacksonville was taking place the next day!
Mr. G drove us over hour and half out of the way (back tracking) to check out this Quilt Fest.
***************
SO many beautiful quilts!
We were allowed to take pictures!  Thank-YOU!
 I can't imagine the planning, purchasing and piecing for these quilts.
No, the quilt above is not pixelated. That's how it really looked.
 Fascinated by quilts that have artistic perspective.

  LOTS of stippling!


 Notice the strip fabric's added touch.
An example of how quilting added to the design.


 Applique details------breath taking.

 Amazing arrangement of stack & whacks!

 Always love the illusions of curves with straight lines in the Storm at Sea Pattern.
Clever use of color.





 The quilting design of this quilt caught my eye.
