Yesterday Mr. P. and I went to a quilt show down in Pinehurst, North Carolina. I can cross this show off my bucket list. The reason I wanted to see this show is because it is held in a barn and I have heard that this guild has some really talented quilters. I was not disappointed.
Before we went to the show Mr. P. took me to this really nice quilt shop, Linderella's Quilt Works. It was so neat, tidy and colorful. They sold some really fun fabrics.
Check out the beams in the barn. The quilt in the foreground was their raffle quilt. No one has called me so I guess I didn't win it.
You can see that the barn had lots of visitors. Some of the spaces where the quilts hung were so crowded that it was hard to get photos.
Here are a few of the quilts. I have many more that I will be sharing with you.

What a fun day - even a trip to a Quilt Shop! That's a lot of eye candy for one day. Thanks for sharing some of the quilts with us.
Sounds like a fun way to spend the day and a fun place to hold a show.

I'm jealous you went to Linderella's, I love her patterns! Great quilts and a really great venue!
What a fun day with your hubby. Linderella's looks like a delightful shop.
A quilt show in a barn sounds like a wonderful idea. I was to a quilt shop a couple times that was in a barn shaped building but not a real barn.
Lucky you! It looks like a really cool place to have a quilt show!
What a great outing - the barn looks like a fabulous place for the show. What a shame you didn't win the quilt - it looked lovely! Thank you for sharing the photos - gorgeous!
Merci de noue faire voir, toutes les belles courtepointe. En oct aux US Shelburn Farm Vt il y a toujours une exposition et c'est dans une ancienne écurie. Si ma santé le permet j'aimerais voir
Bon dimanche Gisèle
What a wonderful old barn and beautiful quilts! Looks like you visited a neat quilt store too!
Love the barn venue. Nancy Crow has the Dairy Barn Quilt Show each year in Ohio. I've never been but that is on my bucket list. I think Nancy Crow is the modern pioneer of modern quilts.
What a great place for a quilt echibition! And so many pretty ones
Thanks for sharing the show. I did not have a chance to go and I love your pictures. I did buy a raffle ticket earlier in the year and I guess I did not win either. I like Linderella a lot. It is such a fun place.
What a gorgeous quilt show venue, Carrie - and some beautiful quilts! I've purchased some things online from Linderella's - how fun to actually go there!
Cheers!
I want to know more about this quilt show!! I've not heard of it but I would be willing to make the drive from Alabama to see it on my way to visit my sister in Mebane, NV (outside of Burlington, NC. I like your blog BTW and have become a new follower from the leafs me Happy Blog hop

How nice that you had the opportunity to attend such a nice show in a beautiful venue. The quilt shop looks like a winner too. One doesn't see much in the way of modern quilting in these shows... yet. I think those days are coming though!
Some lovely quilts there - thanks for sharing. Sorry you didn't win the raffle quilt!
Glad you enjoyed our quilt show. For those interested, our next show will be in two years, same place, same weekend. When it's time you'll be able to get more info at sandhillsquilters.org or quiltinginthepines.org or sewgratefulquilts.wordpress.com.
