the art of the quilt

saturday evening was the opening reception for the "art or the quilt" exhibit at the cobb county art museum.
it showcased the best quilts from the last 10 years of the east cobb quilt guild's biannual show. (awarded first place in category, best machine/hand quilted, or best of show)

karen's elemental was used as the 'copy' for all the literature.

my customers had three quilts hanging in the exhibit.





alberta's harvest star. it won best machine quilted.



















karen's elemental quilt. 
























jan's mistletoe quilt. 









it was fun! davis loved the crab salad that the caterers made...

  8. I love the picture you took of my Star. We were looking for you there but didnt see you. We were there by 6 and left bt 7 to go have dinner. I was very happy with the way they showcased the quilts so that you could see them easily. Lots of pictures were taken.

  10. I remember the Mistletoe quilt from the East Cobb show, I really liked it. Thanks for sharing with us Shannon. Those of us on the other side of town don't always catch these exhibits.
