Quilts, quilts and even mini quilts!

A little over a month ago (yep, that's how far behind I am with my blog updates!!) I managed to take a last minute visit to the Festival of Quilts in Birmingham.
I managed to spend a few pennies and see lots of amazing quilts and quilting.
Here's a little recap!
Amazing whole cloth quilting ~

 Gorgeous quilt designs ~

Hexies ~

 Stunning quilts ~

 Gorgeous use of modern fabrics ~

 A quick glimpse of Tula Pink!!

 I spy a stunning Lu Summers quilt!

 Wonderful quilting ~

 And just look at this mini quilt!! Yes this was mini!!

Look backing at some of the photos just reminds me that I've really missed using the sewing machine and I must get on and make my first quilt. Can someone please point me in the direction of where I can buy extra time!!
