An artist who is also a quilter.....

 

 

 

This is a quilt that was in the show at the International Quilt Market in Pittsburgh.

 

 

 

How does one do this?  I am simply amazed at how she has captured the likeness of President Abraham Lincoln......every little detail is incredible.  In my hurried passing I didn't catch the name of the artist.  I meant to find time to go back and retrieve that important information, but did not get it accomplished.  I refer to a she as the creator, but I'm not certain about that fact.......I wanted to share it anyway, so that you might be amazed also.

 

 

 

 

I also got a quick shot of this incredible Baltimore Album Quilt....also an amazing masterpiece.  I couldn't get up close as they were all roped off and were closely monitored.

 

 

Today I hope to spend time in my sewing room.  I've been working on a new quilt, plus I need to get handwork together to take on my little upcoming trip with quilting friends.
