There was a surprise in the mail today - the SAQA Journal for Spring 2010 containing an article about the TCQC with pictures of three quilts that are part of it: Ruth McDowell's "Ft. Morrison Jerseys", Elizabeth Barton's "Gathering Storm" and Ruth Powers' "Early Birds" are shown on pages 28/29. Another of Ruth Powers' quilts, "Burlingame Fire", is in the SAQA Member Gallery on page 18, as are quilts by two other quilt artists I have my eye on - Sue Reno and Nancy G. Cook. This is an interesting issue of the Journal with a number of helpful articles.
Suzanne Smith Arney, the free lance writer of the TCQC article, interviewed me back in Sep/Oct 2009 and this article is the result. I hope it encourages others to start a collection of art quilts, no matter how small.
Great news! I'd love to see it, Del.
ReplyDeleteI was inspired by you to start my own collection. When Laura Cater Woods was at my house she said she loved that I had incorporated textile art with our other art. You are an inspiration!!
ReplyDeleteThe article about you in the SAQA Journal was a great read. I am always fascinated to hear what attracts a collector to part with her money. Thank you for considering art quilts fine art.
