Durand Quilt Show

I’m finally getting around to post about the Durand quilt show from a few weeks ago.  This is a quilt show that was held in a church is in a rural area of Michigan.  There is always so much talent at this show.  Durand has lots of railroad tracks running through town, and until the last few years, the quilt show was held at the local train depot.  The train depot is a beautiful, old building with lots of oak trim.
 
This one made me smile

This one was made up of men’s ties


There were several Halloween quilts

The quilting from the back side of this quilt was awesome.



I love Hawaiian quilts.

Cool signature quilt from the early 40’s

For the sewing machine collectors…

I will post more pictures tomorrow.  Hope you enjoyed the show.
