I loved them all. But the one I loved the most was the self portrait made up of quilt fabric scraps accumulated throughout a quilting life. so beautiful. Ans so meaningful.

I must be old fashioned or just old, but although I can appreciate the imagination and art in the 'new' quilts I really prefer the old traditional patterns...and even better, antique quilts. We have a few of them and wish we had more. One of these days we'll have to make it down to visit the Bulloch house. The only problem is driving anywhere near Atlanta and its horrendous traffic as we'd have to come down I-75 from the north. The cartoon is spot on although if any Trump supporters read your blog, they may go ballistic! We're moderate Republicans but we've been left out of this year's election process...

My favourite of all these might be the scrap quilt, partly because it reminds me of some wonderful tiles we once had in our kitchen, from Liberty of London, many years ago. Of course we can never get them again. I still have a few. Maybe I should ask my quilter friend to replicate them in a quilt! that's an idea.....Jenny Woolfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16881781466502273314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8796960161183320830.post-29771581329316778522016-03-19T02:01:02.005-04:002016-03-19T02:01:02.005-04:00I love that last cartoon.
