This is the last of the three quilts added to TCQC in October 2018 from the SAQA online auction. I don't have the funds I once did, because I like to buy quilts! But I was not overly impressed by the selection this year. I like to think that the quilts submitted are the artist's very best work.
I have long admired Ellen Linder's quilts and was glad to see these bright leaves this year. Interesting hand stitching, but it isn't quilting because it doesn't go all the way through to the backing.
"Crotons with Attitude" Elllen Lindner 2018 12" X 12"
Cotton fabrics, batting, and thread.
Fused, raw edge applique,machine stitching, hand stitching.
The machine stitched "outline" adds a lot of depth to the image.
A good label with contact for the artist, in case someone wants to contact her to buy more quilts! See more of her work at her website: www.adventurequilter.com
