Hauptstrasse Quiltfest

I spent a simply gorgeous morning in Boerne, Texas at the Hauptstrasse Quiltfest. It was an outdoor quilt show and sale held in the Main Plaza of the historic district.

Just look at all these lovely quilts blowing in the breeze!!

They were hung all the way down both sides of the park which was probably longer than a football field.

They were even hung on buildings.

I can’t begin to show all the lovely quilts that were on display but here are a few of my favorites.

I couldn’t get the title and creator because this was hanging on the balcony of the building. AWESOME quilt!

 

Hope you enjoyed the “eye candy”

Having done my first bargello a couple of months ago as a table runner, I'm very impressed by the bargello leaf/heart.
