The AQS Virginia Beach show is coming up quickly and I'm madly trying to finish off my to-do list. One of the big tasks is to finish the booth decorations. I've got some great quilts to hang and display but I'm doing a wall of fabric flowers at the back of the booth. I showed you the first ones here. The point of these is to simply show off the fabrics. I've made ones using the Color Wheel fabrics and I just finished this one using one of the Crystal mandalas. This one is huge! It's about 36" across and I am THRILLED with how it turned out. The center and the large petals are from one Crystal. I think it's going to really stand out against the booth backdrop of dark blue.
Next up is one made from Shibori, one or two from Gradients, some from Shades packs and something from the Black Shades Pack. My goal is to have them done by the end of the weekend. Wish me luck!

I think your flowers will be a real show stopper! Making each one out of your different types of hand dyed fabric is a great idea to show them off.

I love this idea. Your booth will be lovely but will also show off the product in an "out of the box" way.

Vicki, your booth will be an eyecatcher with all the lovely floral flowers depicting the various groups of beautiful hand dyed fabrics you make. I look forward to seeing pictures of your booth after the quilt show.
