There is currently an exhibit of quilts depicting birds at Back Porch Fabrics in Pacific Grove. I am always attracted to images of birds in quilts and just about anywhere else. If you are in the area, especially to attend Empty Spools Seminars at Asilomar, do have a look. There is a variety of techniques and styles and sizes, including Ruth McDowell's fabulous "A Rash of Flamingoes". One of the great things about having a collection is sharing it with others.
Here are some of the 12"X12" quilts in the exhibit, most are from the SAQA online auctions.
