Quinglish: Annual English-speaking Quilters Meeting

The Annual Quilglish was held at Terry's this year. (BTW, Terry is the only long-arm quilter in the country!) The Quinglish is an annual meeting of English-speaking quilters from all over Israel and is always a fun day...lots of show and tell...

a report on how various groups charity quilt projects are going (and a peek at one of the charity quilts from a group in Haifa) and more show and tell quilts hanging on a clothesline

some shopping...Debby from the Quilt Center set up a "booth" with lots of fat quarters, notions, and batting...

visiting with old friends (including fellow blogger Debbie) and making new friends and seeing something new and beautiful...Elaine felts on silk and makes the most wonderful shawls. You can see her shawls in her Etsy shop. There she is, on the right, modelling one.

There was also a table piled with baskets and bags...I just have to try making one of those baskets!

It was a fun day until the ride home! We live in the north, right on the Sea of Galilee, and a big vacation day (or week) destination...it took us 1 1/4 hours to get to the Quinglish near Tel Aviv and 3 3/4 hours! to get home :(

Since I had my little pocketbook size camera with me (which is why all the pix aren't the greatest), I took a picture from the barely creeping forward car...the wild daisy has made itself quite at home in this field!
