In English:

It was in March 2013 when we visited the annual quilt show in Siilinjärvi (Hedgehog’s Lake). Siilinjärvi is small municipality quite near to a bigger town called Kuopio. The distance from Helsinki to Siilinjärvi is406 kilometers / 258 miles.

The exhibition was quite typical presenting abstract, geometric quilts and some quilts with landscapes. I am so old fashioned that I love them very much although many abstracts are masterpieces. In addition to these there were some humorous quilts. The quilt presenting a corpulent couple on picnic by the seaside is one of my favorites. The group of quilters had “funny” name called “Hot Flushes”. They had made tiny quilts in which the present themselves. In quilts they are posing themselves in the same pose than ancient Egyptians presented people – faces in side profile. My hat off to these ladies who understand humor.

En español:

Fue en marzo 2013, cuando visitamos Exposición annual de Guilda de Finn 2013 en Siilinjärvi (Lago de erizo). Siilinjärvi es pequeño municipio muy cerca de una ciudad grande llamada Kuopio. La distancia desde Helsinki a Siilinjärvi es 406 kilómetros / 258 millas.

La exposición fue normal con presentaciónes de colchas abstractas y geométricas y algunos colchas con paisajes. Estoy tan pasado de moda que quiero mucho colchas tradicionales, aunque muchas abstractas y geométricas son obras maestras. Además de estas hubo algunos edredones buen humor. La colcha de la presentación de un par corpulento haciendo una excursión junto al mar es una de mis favoritas. El grupo de quilters tenía el nombre “gracioso” llamado “Sofocos”. Habían hecho pequeñas colchas en la que cada una de ellas se presentan. En colchas ellas se presentan, en la misma postura que los antiguos egipcios presentó personas – caras en perfil lateral. !Me quito el sombrero! delante estas mujeres que entienden humor.

En Francais:

C’était en Mars 2013, lorsque nous avons visité à la d’Exposition annuelle de Guilde de Finn 2013 à Siilinjärvi (Lac hérisson). Siilinjärvi est une petite ville près d’une grande ville appelée Kuopio. La distance de Helsinki à Siilinjärvi est environs 406 kilomètres / 258 miles. L’exposition était normal avec des présentations de abstraites et géométriques courtepointes et aussi avec quelques courtepointes de paysages. Je suis tellement démodé que j’aime les courtepointes traditionnelles, bien que plusieurs abstraits et géométrique courtepointes sont les chefs-d’œuvre. Outre celles, il y avait des courtepointes humoristiques. La courtepointe laquelle présente un couple corpulent faisant un virée sur une plage de mer, est l’une de mes favoris. Le groupe de quilteuses avait le “nom drôle”: “Bouffées de chaleur”. Dans ces petites courtepointes chacune d’elles se présentent. Dans ces courtepointes elles ont la même posture que les anciens Egyptiens qui ont présenté les êtres humains – des visages du profil latéral. Chapeau devant ces femmes qui comprennent l’humour.

Em Português:

Foi em março 2013, quando visitamos a anual exposição de colcha em Siilinjärvi (Lago de ouriço). O Siilinjärvi é pequeno município muito próximo a uma cidade maior chamada Kuopio. A distância entre Helsínquia e Siilinjärvi é 406 km / 258 milhas.

A exposição era muito típica, abstrato apresentdo, colchas geométricas e algumas colchas com paisagens. Estou tão à moda antigao o que eu os amo muito embora muitos resumos são obras-primas. Além destes havia algumas colchas humorísticos. A colcha apresentando um casal corpulento no piquenique junto ao mar é uma das inhas favoritas. O grupo de quilters tinha o nome divertido “Ondas de calor”. Eles tinham feito pequenas colchas em que presentem elas mesmas. Em colchas essas mulheres estavam posando na mesma posição do que os antigos egípcios apresentado pessoas – enfrenta no perfil lateral. Meu chapéu para estas senhoras que entendem humor.

Bonjour Matti,
Merveilleux !
Tous ceux-ci sont des pièces rares, mais existe-t-il un site marchand finlandais spécialisé dans les patchworks ?
De moins en moins de temps pour la photo et les blogs, j’espère que tu vas bien et te souhaite une bonne fin de semaine.
Bises.
Marion

- Bonjour Marion.
  
  Je suis désolé, mais il ya pas de boutiques pour les patchworks . Je pense que c’est une question d’argent. Peut-être que certains touristes pourrait les acheter quelquefois. Merci de m’avoir fait un commentaire.
  
  Bonne fin de semaine et bises.

  Thank You for Your praising comment. She used to quilt many years ago. Then she started to bead and last winter she was called to a specific group of quilters. She made something small and at same time she beaded. After few weeks I show her beading works.

All of these quilts are beautiful. I don’t think I could pick out a favorite if I tried, although I, too, like the couple enjoying a seaside picnic.

These Quilts are all stunning, truly a gift of the heart. It must be irresistible to touch and feel them. I’m sure the artists are pleased with your photographs which captured them very well, in some I can even see the stitching, well done.

The very large floral “hexy” made up of small “hexies” is gorgeous and I really love the green/yellow quilt, with the Pandas appliqued on it. There were many of the more “modern” quilts I liked and some of the more traditional quilts using contemporary color choices. Great “show”…..thanks so much for sharing!!!!!

Comment by chrissiedixie — June 27, 2014 @ 19:10 | Reply
- Hi Chrirssie.
  
  Thank You for Your nice comment. Well, I believe You, because quilting is international and its “winds” spread around the world rapidly due to Internet, books and magazines. I find it lovely that in every country quilters give to their works something original referring to their own country. Many Finnish quilters visit quilt shows in Great Brittany, France, Nordic countries and even in Japan at same time presenting their own quilts. These contacts useful for both sides.
  
  Happy weekend!

I enjoyed these photos you took.
Because I am very clumsy, it is not good at sewing. But it is like to watch such works.
I felt beautiful that the design of geometric patterns is straight.
And, the design of people and animals are soft curved atmosphere.
Kiitos 🙂

  Thank You. When visiting quilt shows, I admire how people can create new from “old” stuff, to select right colors which must be in harmony and having long term patience to do these. Once Anja made a bedcover quilt and she made it six month! You can see this quilt here:
  
  Quilting and patchwork / Almazuelas / Appliqués.
  
  It is the eight / ninth from the top.
