Quilt Market

I went to Quilt Market last weekend and it was fantastic! It's a trade only show for all things textile including fabrics, yarns, machines, threads, buttons, patterns and more.

The adjoining Quilt exhibition was so wonderful and so inspiring! I only had my iphone (camera) with me so these pictures don't do justice to the actual art pieces. The first two are close-ups of larger quilts and the third was a smaller sized quilt so I was able to show the whole thing. I'm showing these today and will show several more in a few days. Enjoy!

The Breath of Life-

 "The theme of Quilt Carnival Nagoya 2008 was the environment and the organism. I imagined the light of the sun as the lining."

"The Global Village"

"When I think about all my internet friends from the whole world it is very easy to imagine that we all live togehter in a small, colorful village. Yes, Mr. McLuhan was right. Here it is; our global village"

"The coming of Spring"

"At last, at last, one can lie on the grass, play hide and seek with the children, leave the youngest asleep outside in the pram and listen to the sound of sheep grazing. At last, at last, the heat of the sun!

Incredible works of art!
