York Antique Quilt Show Success | Quilters Threads Wow, it's taken us three weeks to come back down to earth, return the hired quilt frames and equipment and re-pack all the antique quilts safety back into their respective homes.

Don't miss the quilt exhibitions on this weekend - Cumbria, Lampeter, Aberystwyth, York, Berkshire and Weardale in Co. Durham.

Beamish - The Living Museum of The North Well worth a visit.

The Living Museum of The North – Beamish | Quilters Threads A recent trip to Beamish reminded me just how wonderful this Museum is. Set in over 300 acres of beautiful countryside in County Durham, the museum looks at life in the North East of England in Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian times.

Thank you to everyone who visited Fairfield Manor yesterday, the quilt show was a great success.

The quilts certainly looked at home in the wonderful Georgian Manor setting.
