    Lori, if these are the quilts made with your so-so fabrics, I can't wait to see what you can do with the museum pieces.

    Your work is stunning!

    The "museum" has gotten a bit larger over the years , and a few pieces have lost there "museum" status. My question(s) is What's in your museum? and what is the oldest piece, and how did it arrive at its special status in your stash? Under what circumstances would you actually cut into the piece(s)?[/quote]

    several narrow Japanese fabrics that I alternate on a bedroom wall - had planned to cut, but just can't

    Oh, it is so difficult, but I try to leave the museum in the store. My home display is less than wonderful and no showpiece should gather dust. But, it is terribly distracting when those museum articles shout from the shelves and it takes every bit of willpower to drag your eyes from them.

    But, if I thought I might end up with a creation as lovely as yours, a piece or two might travel home with me.

    Your quilts are beautiful. I understand what you are saying though. I have some fabric I just keep to love and touch.
