QuiltCon was fun.

Understatement.

When we first saw the room we thought, this is it? There is not much here.

We were wrong.

There were more quilts displayed than we originally thought. And what quilts! Some we loved, some that were thought provoking and some were just fun!

Here is one of Alyssa’s favorites; I say one of because it was hard to choose just one!

One of my favorites…

And there was more to do than just look at quilts, shop, take classes, listen to lectures, see free demos… (like that wasn’t enough?). Some of the booths had games. Moda had a bean toss and we each won a charm pack! They also had a fun photo booth with silly stuff to wear. Kona had their naming the Kona color game and a friend of ours Bonnie won a tote bag. Aurifil had a ping pong ball toss game- no winners here.

And tattoos! A few of the booths had tattoos including C&T (where we got ours), Cotton & Steel… we could even gotten a real tattoo. And some did.

We were in Texas so we would not have been surprised to see a riding bull somewhere, but instead there was a riding sewing machine.

Best part of QuiltCon? Seeing friends and making new friends.
