Modern quilts, abstract art quilts, and the grey area in between
I make lots of drawings and skatches of quilts but they take a long time to percolate in my head and even longer time to end up on my design board. Recently, I decided to break all restraints and rules of quilting and use whatever technique necessary (even those frowned upon) to make a quilt from my designs. Here is the problem, this quilt will be entered in a modern quikt competition, and the more I look at my drawings, sample blocks, and sketches, the more it looks like an abstract art quilt rather than a modern quikt. Where in this huge grey area is a fine line between a modern quilt and an abstract art quilt? I would love to hear your thoughts and ideas. I cannot post a picture, because there is no cohesive unit yet. Help shed some light on this question and help me avoid entering my quilt in a wrong show and risk being disqualified. Thank you and happy quilting!
