    Default Gustav Klimt Quilts

    I love working with printed panels because there are so many simple beautiful images to work with and build a quilt around.

    Right now I am enthralled with Robert Kaufman's fabrics inspired by the artist Gustav Klimt. There are panels and corresponding fabrics in multiple colours.

    I have finished one quilt centered around the artwork titled The Kiss accented in blue and golds.

    I am now working on a second quilt centered on the painting Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer I accented in green, red and gold.

    Oh! I love them. I'm especially attracted to the one with "The Kiss" on it.

    I love those borders you added on, they complement the panels so well!
