More "Drama in my Garden"
 

I love it when I have friends over and they poke through my rooms and workshop and find they like things they hadn't dreamed of. As a result I was asked to duplicate a recent piece. This woman DID tell me what she HAD to have in her piece and I was happy to comply. So this is similar but different from the original.

Just great, such talent..how in the world do you get started on this, I'm not trying to capture your style, but would really like to have an idea how you get started and continue till finished, maybe a short tutorial? Anyway, it is beautiful, just beautiful. thanks for sharing..

Very creative! Did you use tulle on this quilt. I have done something similar but my quilting need much more practice. I just love it.

Wow! So awesome! The dragonflies are beautiful!

Yes, tulle is the over lay to hold the background in place before stitching it down.
Thanks MK

That belongs in a musuem! What a talent you have!!!

Wow wonderful quilt.

WOW - absolutely stunning art quilt.

Beautiful modern quilt.

Ahhhhhh. Marvelous! Oh if I could only create like that. I, much to my sadness, am a technician.

This week I got into one of the largest bookstores (new and used) in the southern US. I picked up a book, PIECED QUILTS OF ONTARIO written by Dorothy K. Burnham, Textile Department, Royal Ontario Museum, Toronto, copyright 1975.

Some of the exhibits shown and discussed in the little book/big brochure were sewn from 1840 forward to just about 1900. I am mentioning them to you because of the huge distance "quilting" has come. I is also fascinating to discover there are still aficionados of every form of quilting still practicing today. You are practicing my favorite part: modern.

Thanks,

Pat
