We never miss going to the fish market in the morning as we love fish and oysters.
The region is very nice with thatched houses in certain areas but what I like most is the coast. We all like hiking along coastal trails whatever the weather! And in between heavy April showers we had cold but beautiful weather ;-)
Discovering Nantes was also a great activity. But for me what was important was the quiltshow. .
As usual there was many tempting booths... but I wasn't there for that and I have been very reasonable...
This year, the quiltshow was, for me, the place to see beautiful exhibitions, meet artists I admire and take classes with them. But not only that....
It was also the opportunity to meet quilting friends. I was happy to see Corinne again and her beautiful quilts designed by Yoko Saito. I am always impressed by her amazing work!
I met several bloggers who post a comment from time to time... really fun.
This quiltshow is unique because it is such a friendly place, where like-minded people share their passion. The best image to show this is this one : Lynette was at Cécile's booth learning with her crochet, a friendly and fun moment which shows what the atmosphere was at the quiltshow.
Well, now let's start our trip around the quilting world! Are you ready to embark ?
