EQA Celebrations

  
Sweden 
The Festival of Quilts has an international atmosphere and walking around you hear many different languages. One area which caught my eye was a display by the European Quilt Association which is celebrating it's 20th year. Each country had put together a display of 10 narrow banners with spectacular results. I didn't manage decent photos of all of the countries participating ( the show was very busy!) but here is a selection in no particular order:
UK

Netherlands

Italy

Belgium


Denmark


Finland


Ireland

    I think each banner was 6" by 60" and there were 10 banners hung side by side.

    I loved all the deep reds in the Belgian collection.
