Photographs of the quilts in the next two sections were not allowed but I was able to take pictures of a few of the quilt artist bios.
At Japanese Quilt Shows it seems there is always Hawaiian Dance entertainment, and this one also had some kind of American Country Western Dance Show. I don't remember any type of stage dance entertainment at quilt shows in the US.

I haven't seen any dance entertainment at quilt shows in Australia either!
It is nice to have a stage as there is a natural area to have seats. At a show one really needs to sit down for a while, to rest one's feet and sort one's impressions. I can do without the performance but the chance to sit down for a while is good...
When we can't take photos the impressions of what we see don't last so long. I know Alison Aller and Jane Sassaman's work from books, but now after the show, I can not recall what of their work I saw...
Thank you for a very thorough report of the show, and a good collection of photos of the quilts. I am also impressed by the quality of the photographs (I saw your little point-and-shoot camera).
I would like to see this blue quilt with my own eyes.
I've never heard of entertainment at a quilt show!
Shame we can't see them, but in your opinion - are the quilts very different from different countries? Could you easily tell which country a quilt comes from?
