I am a great Sue Benner fan, but I only have two of her quilts. The first purchase was in 2001 when I found "Marsh #11" at the Thirteen Moons Galllery in Santa Fe, NM. I had not met Sue at that time, so I didn't know what a delightful, warm person she is. But I couldn't leave Santa Fe without her quilt.

In 2010 the quilt below was part of a fund raiser for the San Jose Museum of Quilts and Textiles. It doesn't quite fit in with all the 12X12 pieces from SAQA auctions, but it is a wonderfully colorful piece that I hang with other small quilts.
"Checks and Bars Jumble" Sue Benner 2009 11"W x 11"L
