Here are photos of some of my favorite quilts from the show. Next year I will take a more substantial camera than my iPhone.
This beautiful piece is Japanese. The Japanese quilts are very delicate, this one had more color than most of them.
The two above are such skilled landscapes I had no words!
This quilt out of NZ was possibly one of my most favorites. A train! But the colors and the perspective are amazing. (Might have something to do with the fact that Orange is one of my favorite colors).
Freakishly photographic kangaroo. The quilter saw this doe in her yard, snapped the photo... and created a quilt!
I did not know that quilts don't have to be angular!!!!
Another landscape.
The two above are mapscapes from an English quilter. One is a daytime view of farm land, the second is a night view of a city. AMAZING.
This quilt and the detail represent ecological devastation. Not only is it a great artists' interpretation of disaster, but the materials used are so varied and interesting; dryer lint, paper, fabric softener sheets... And if you notice in the larger image, like Pandora's box, there is hope in a small sliver of green.
I know this dog, I live with him, but my guy weighs in at 150.
I laughed out loud when I saw this quilt, it is the "spittin' image of a good friend of mine.
Can't resist the dog stuff.
The colors in this quilt spoke to me.
The detail in this quilt is spectacular.
Is is 2013 yet!!!! I can't wait to go again!
