More quilts at Long Beach 09-17-22

11-25-22  Now that I am on I see that this did not post way back then.  Sorry.  Del 

This small exhibit of quilts with birds was very nice.   It doesn't say, but I think this was a juried exhibit and may appear at the Houston Festival in October.  

I put this one first as it is my favorite from this exhibit.  

My policy is to not show quilts unless I can give attribution, but somehow I don't have the labels for the following quilts. If you know who made any of them please let me know.

More quilts in Long Beach 08-30-22

 

I went to the Long Beach show especially to see Zena Thorpe's quilts.  I have admired her beautiful, precise hand applique and quilting for many years.  

Zena has a definite English accent, but she lives in Chatsworth, California, on the north edge of Los Angeles. 

 

"Kells: Magnum Opus"  Hand appliqued and quilted.  This is the quilt that most quilters think of when when they hear the name Zena Thorpe, Master Quilter. 

I couldn't resist photographing the letters to spell my name!

More at a later date.  I'll get back to posting.
