Drove yesterday to Parrsboro, NS to set up a show of 22 quilts and wall art pieces which will hang in the Art Lab Studio and Gallery until August 30.
I’m always amazed at what my work looks like when hanging together like this – I can see just how much I accomplished in a year.
The reaction of the visitors yesterday at the opening was encouraging – people were interested in how I constructed the wall art, particularly those pieces with photo elements printed on cotton.
It seems the favourite pieces, they got a lot of attention, are the modern “flower” appliqué hangings. I thought the “banner” pieces might generate interest but the flowers seem to be winning out.
Until I saw the show hanging, I hadn’t realized how much turquoise featured in my work this year. It shows up in quite a few of the quilts and hangings as a highlight colour.
Fabulous work. Trust that your wrist is healed well! P
Thanks. Wrist is coming along – I’m garment sewing at the moment but back to quilts and wall art soon.
Looks fantastic! Wish I could drop by.
Your show looks fabulous! Wonderful quilts! You are an inspiration to all Quilters!
It looks really excellent Judith. I hope there is a lot of interest. How is your wrist?

My wrist is coming along – still have to be careful about lifting heavy things, but mostly I don’t think about it.
Wow!
