My Favorite Quilts
People ask me which of my quilts is my favorite. Gee, that’s a hard question! I’m not sure I have a favorite, but if I do, it changes. Someone once told me that your most recent piece is always your favorite. In my case, there’s a certain amount of truth to that, but not always.
Here are a few that fall into my favorites category. (I purposely didn’t choose any recent ones, although many of them qualify.) Click any image for a larger view.
Misty Morn, 2003
The piece above was inspried by a morning walk. It was great fun to interpret
it a little loosely. See a detail shot here.
Gold Bananas, 2008
The bananas are actually a glued collage. A great way to control very ltitle pieces of fabric. I love this piece and am considering making a very large version of it.
Whispered Prayers, 2006
Whispered Prayers is part of my Body Language series. Can’t you tell exactly
what this mom is thinking? The detail shot will give you an idea as
to how I’ve answered that quetion.
Hopes and Daydreams is one of my earliest art quilts and
it’s still one of my favorites.
Hopes and Daydreams, 2001
Urban Sprawl has had an “extreme makeover.” See a detail shot here.
