Hello everyone.
Been on my hols to friends in Augsburg and found out via the German Quilters Association that there was a quilt exhibition a short distance away, in Kösching , a small town (about the size of Boston Spa). So off we went.
It was held in buildings which had previously been a convent and are now for civic use. Beautiful rooms , very light , with oak floors .
The Diamond Quilters seem to have a nucleus of about 18 quilters ,who have a broad range of talent and interest. They also make “exceedingly good cakes “.
I was impressed by the level of skill and also by the gorgeous fabrics , mostly supplied by Angelica , who has a quilt shop in the village.
Age range about the same as our group. As with all quilters , a very friendly lot .
Hilmar , our friend’s husband was really impressed and even my other half (who never goes near a quilt show ) said he’d enjoyed it !
To the ladies of the Diamond Quilters , Kösching ,who are going to look in to our blog "Vielen Dank fuer eine schoene Austellung . Wir hoffen dass Sie ein erfolgreiches Wochenende hatten. “
