I recently under went a change and began to appreciate my grandmothers quilts. I didn't think about the time, dedication and complexity of them until I decided one day last winter to make one. The heat wasn't working in my house for about a month in December which was manageable yet cold enough to ignite the fire of quilt making in me. I had plenty of fabric on hand and began making a queen size quilt.
This isn't an example on one of mine or my grandmothers, but I admire it for it's simplicity and complexity.
Hi Sarah, Have you seen the quilts of Gee's Bend? Amazing pieces of art with an interesting history.
