Recently I ordered a small quilt from the SAQA store and it arrived. I love it! These little quilts were made for a traveling exhibit to show different styles and methods of art quilts. After traveling for the set period of time, some were donated to the International Quilt Study Center and Museum in Lincoln, Nebraska and some were offered for sale. I am honored to have my entry in the museum collection, especially after having seen the beauties that are left. There are still some great little quilts for sale!
“Mindscape” by Janet Root of NYÂ which started, she said, with the vertical piece of hand dyed material and is embellished with fringes, hand and machine stitches and threads knotted into the brown shell buckle at the top that in the picture looks silvery from the reflected light. Very cool!
