PIQF - Foliage 10-23-10

The focus of these quilts is foliage - some critters are also here.

Noriko's distinctive technique creates beautiful woods and orchards. She has a special affinity for this type of quilt, each one she makes is a masterpiece.


Although this amazing frog lives among the lily pads and plops into very green water, I think the uneven edge is a distraction. Perhaps it would show better on a wall than on a curtain.



Betty has a different eye for color and and used it effectively in this unusually colored quilt.
There was another "Monstera" quilt in the show, but I don't know the maker and will not show a quilt without a name. After all the work that goes into a quilt, the artist deserves identity.



This quilt, also made by Betty Busby, was in the World Quilt Competition representing the USA. Again, her color sense is distinctive and eye catching. The water is especially wonderful.

There are many critters in this quilt. If you click on the all-over image you can see them better.
