I went to the Quilt Festival today with a good friend and, as usual, felt inspired and overwhelmed at the same time. Every year I get so excited seeing all the beautiful quilts and I want to run home and make a masterpiece. However, the longer I walk down the rows of these incredible works of art - textile art - I realize that I am only a casual quilter. I don't sew every day - I don't even sew every month. Some of the quilters who made these intricately detailed quilts work on them every day, all day, for years. I can't do that. My interests are too varied. My hat (if I wore one) would be off to these patient artists.
Here are a few of my favorites...
What talent! I am both inspired and humbled by them!
