The award winning quilts are shared by the American Quilt Society, but there are many other wonderful quilts at their shows.
We especially enjoyed the DeVos Center as a venue for quilts. We could get quite close and far away, which enables the viewer to see a quilt at its best.
Here are some bed sized quilts that I especially liked.
I was drawn to this quilt every time I saw it. I Like Circles is by Roberta Amstadt of Traverse City, MI.
Shower of Roses by Donna Derstadt of Libertyville, IL is a Susan Garman pattern.
Chieko Shiraishi of Saitama-shi, Japan appliqued a handmade Irish crochet lave on the pattern of antique lace to create this amazing Irish Crochet Lace quilt.
I am a sucker for pictorial quilts. There were many amazing ones at this show.
