jill here...Last week the American Quilter's Society Quilt Show came to Des Moines. The event was filled with wonderful quilts and vendors galore. The exhibition quilting was even more intricate and incredible than ever before. The MasterPieces; Quilts of Inspiration was just that! My personal favorite exhibit was
COLORPLAY: Interternational Quilt Challenge. It was unexpected, unique and absolutely beautiful. The link explains the connections and the photos show the creativity.

| The texture, created not only with quilting but with value, was really stunning. |
Wouldn't this be a great quilt guild challenge?

One more gem. The black line really grounds the brights .
The subtle dark border makes a very striking statement. |
'till next Tuesday....
Interesting! Love the variety of styles, and the color combinations!
ReplyDeleteI loved the Color Play exhibit. It made me want to do a series of 12 x 12 quilts.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite though was the Silk Road exhibit. (Though I also enjoyed the cows- I love a good pun.)
