Peruse the artful trees on the 100 block of Washington Avenue---and go see the fantastic gallery exhibit while you are there too!

I Like the Way She Thinks...

Thoughts about quilting from Gwen Marston...

Here are some concepts from nineteenth century quilts that we can still use effectively today:

• simple pieced patterns 
• random color placement and color substitution
• no corner resolution on borders
• tied quilts
• edges finished by bringing the backing to the front and making binding
• less precision

I've never understood what seems to be the over-preoccupation with precision in the quilt world. It seems to me that the making of art has very little to do with staying inside the lines.
