Part 2 - cont. The quilt show

More of Robyn Ginn's quilts

Quilt 3 Greening australia.
Artists Statement;  In the changing Seasons there are many diamond quilts that I love.  My quilt is hand appliqued and had pieced.  The fabrics are Japanese. American and Australian.  Mixing these with gum and oak trees made it fun. 

 

The trees look very ‘Art Deco’  and again the borders are interesting.

Quilt 4 Visiting Grandma
Artists Statement;  My friend, Billie gave me a bundle of fabrics from the Victoria and Albert Museum in London.  It seemed appropriate to make a Grandma quilt of the light and shadow over the road on my visits to Grandma’s. 

Again, there is so much that is interesting in the detail. The signpost with the names of the towns explains all the pine trees as this area is full of pine plantations.

 The embroidered Queensland  house and the orchards surrounding it.


The beautiful fabric used in the hexagon back ground. 

The garden around the house and that little chapel.

 

Quilt 5  Chrysanthemum Tiles
Artists Statement;  This quilt uses many fabrics that blend with the fabric which inspired my ‘tiles’.  The effect is a wall put together from a box of left over tiles.

Robyn has used this tile theme before and I can see there will probably be more of them in the future.

And yesterdays Children's Embroidery class saw 20 children in the room and all stitching like mad.
