Here is another of Elizabeth Barton's quilts, one that hangs frequently in my viewing spot so I can enjoy it every day. It resurrects memories of lovely trips through England and Wales.
"Chimney Pots" Elizabeth Barton - Georgia 2005 50"W X 39.5"L
Hand dyed, painted, stamped, screened, discharged fabrics. Cotton, silk, rayon, wool, furnishing fabrics. Machine raw edge and turned applique, machine piecing, machine quilting.
She utilized fabrics she had created herself, using many different techniques. The fabrics are as interesting as the chimney pots, poised like a choir at the top of the quilt.
