I took this picture of Elizabeth Barton, my teacher this week, several years ago when I attended a program she gave at a quilt guild. The bottom picture is "Gathering Storm" a quilt she made last autumn and I added to the TCQC during the winter. Almost everyone in the class is working on a design of buildings, of course. Elizabeth's quilts are almost always of buildings in her native England. She has lived in Athens, Georgia, for about twenty years, but still sounds like she just stepped off the plane. She is enjoying the company of twenty English/Scottish/Irish quiltmakers who are here as part of a quilting tour of the USA. They are delightful.
