Here are some pictures of quilts that I saw at a show in August, 2011. There weren’t too many that caught my eye this year, so it’s a short slideshow. Mostly I take pictures of the ones that I find inspiring and unique.
Since I go to this every few years, I searched around on my computer and found a bunch of other pictures and made them into a slide show also. Here’s some from 2006:
Putting up old pictures while I’m cleaning my workspace. I have so many UFOs around here and stashes of yarn that I’m dying to get to for some single-skein projects. I need to do some serious organizing.
Been inspired lately? Productive?
Yesterday I moved one little set of drawers from one place to another and ended up spending hours rearranging stuff! I felt silly afterwards as nothing really changed. My stuff are just in different places that's all and it was a lot of work. I really like the first quilt in the first video. The one with circles and little running stitches. I adore running stitches. The quilt with swans preparing to fly - I immediately thought Japanese because of the colours and I was right. I love blue and white but oddly I've always found it hard to find really good quality dark blue fabric in Singapore.
ReplyDeleteI loved the running stitches, too Jane! And I never did finish cleaning up around here, just going to keep hacking at it as I can. Wondering if you ever tried dyeing fabric yourself?
