As promised, here are more quilts from the International Quilt Festival in Houston.
Here is another quilt by Caryl Bryer Fallert. The name of the quilt is “Lepidopteran #32: Buckeye & Chives” and was entered in the Art-Pictorial category. You can find out more about Caryl at www.bryerpatch.com If you ever read my blog you often find that I take photos of the butterflies and moths in our gardens so it is no surprise that this quilt would attract my attention.
This next quilt was made by David Taylor from Steamboat Springs, CO. David won first place in the Art-Pictorial category for “Maynard”. People were joking that a dog butt won first place. But, it was joking in a nice way. Everyone loved the quilt.
Here is a close-up shot of “Maynard”. Fabulous fabric choices. You can find more about David at http://www.davidtaylorquilts.com
David also won 3rd place in the same category for “Marmalade’s First Snow”.
This quilt was equally as impressive. David you are very, very talented.
“Reflections” was made by Carol Swinden from Canada. I loved how she was able to make me see reflections by her use of fabric. You can find out more about Carol at http://carolswinden.wordpress.com/
Because my husband likes to fish I am often attracted to quilts with fish. I always said that some day I would make one amazing fish quilt, but I have never gotten around to it , yet! Well, Pam Holland did a really fun fish quilt that I thought you might like to see. You can find out more about Pam on her website http://pamhollanddesigns.typepad.com/
Nancy Brown is one of my favorite designers. I can honestly say I have not seen a quilt of hers that I did not like and this one, Bay Bridge Series, is no exception. You can find out more about Nancy at http://www.nancybrownquilts.com/
