Pour l'Amour du Fil - Nantes

On the 20th April, I was in Nantes for the Pour L'Amour du Fil exhibition. It was my first time and I was looking forward to seeing the work of international quilting designers, as well as doing some shopping.
The exhibition did not disappoint. I got to meet the lovely Judy Newman who signed her new book for me.


I had a great time. It truly was an international exhibition - exhibitors, retailers and attendees. If you ever think you would like to go, I'd definitely recommend it. Nantes city was lovely and it made a great weekend break.
What follows are some photos of the work I saw displayed.










Pendle Hill - Di Ford Hall
I'd love to make this

    Pendle Hill is gorgeous and what a great idea to send an embroidered postcard

    Wonderful exhibition. I don't quilt myself but I do enjoy seeing the finished pieces like this.
