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.
