Staten Island Quilters Guild 2024 Show

Our guild had a wonderful, successful show yesterday. I couldn't be more proud of every quilt displayed and everyone who made the show possible.

 Of course, I want to show you every picture, but there are far too many.

So instead, I am including a link to our Facebook page. You can click on as many pictures as you like. The first 2 posts on the page are devoted to the show.

Wow.  A fantastic collection of quilts.  I very much like the chicken one.
It must have been a huge job to set up the exhibition - well done.  I presume the little group of men helped with that ( or are they too shy to show us their quilts?  :) )
Life's too short for ironing.

Great to see @Sara-S . I think I recognise your Halloween quilt  :loveit: Lots of inspiration for everyone from all those lovely quilts.
I’ve only been to one quilt show, but I must try to find out if there are any locally.

I'd love to see them, @Sara-S  but, unfortunately, I'm not on Facebook and it won't let me look without a login.

I can't do that on my phone, @Sheilago. It takes over the whole page. I might have to fish my laptop out, later.

Thanks for posting that @Sara-S. I enjoyed looking at all the quilts. What a good array you had.  :thumb:
So many beers, so little time.

I see that some of you aren’t able to view them. A bit later, I will pick out a few & post them here.

Wow!  These people have WAY more patience than I do - that level of precision would drive me nuts!  I liked the gothy one with the skull, the Japanese-ish one with the tree, and the one that riffed on the US flag particularly.  And the cake stall....

I enjoyed looking at the quilts very much, thank you @Sara-S

Some have a great level of detail and technical accuracy, which wows me, but others are much simpler and more things I feel I could do myself. I love that your group showed them all

@SewRuthieSews your observation is astute.  We range from beginners to experts and all of us are encouraged to submit our work.

As promised, here are a few pics for those who can’t see the facebook posts;
