It's great to be back on home ground. Our holiday in the States was truly amazing; we so love big cities, and New York/Chicago certainly do not disappoint.
NYC December 27, 2010 ~ More snow than we could ever have wished for.
For me the highlights were visiting Purl in Soho, The Folk Art Museum and The Museum of Modern Art. And then of course there is ice skating in Central Park on Christmas Day, confidently traveling on the Subway (we purchased a 2 week unlimited ride ticket, which was definitely the best value!), and generally emerging ourselves in the American culture (and that snow blizzard!).
We've been home for a few days now, and three weeks worth of washing has been taken care of. As if on cue, a bundle of Pat Bravo's Nature Elements fabrics arrived yesterday morning, hence the sewing machine has also had it's fair share of action. Progress pictures soon.
Whilst in New York I was sent a book by NY Publisher Sixth and Spring Books. The Art Quilt Collection: Designs & Inspiration from Around the World
profiles more than 100 award winning artists along with their stunning creations.
profiles more than 100 award winning artists along with their stunning creations. I've selected two of my favorite quilts from the book to share with you:
Manhattan by Bernadette Mayr (Germany)
and
A Complete Basket Case by Kent Williams (USA)
What I really love about this book is that is that not only does it showcase stunning quilts crafted using well established methods, it also includes step by step photographs and instructions to illuminate some of the techniques with which mere scraps of fabrics become vibrant works of art.
Now the good news is that Tara from Sixth & Spring Books has also kindly offered to giveaway a copy of The Art Quilt Collection to one lucky reader.
