Hello from Raleigh North Carolina
Today I am writing to you before I get on the plane, having spent 3 days at QuiltCon, and as usual, I am tracking how 'Modern Quilting' is changing and growing. I will feature a quilt and write about the show in the Weds morning e-newsletter.
One thing I can say is that there is more overlap with what I consider contemporary or art quilts.
The quilt I wanted to buy did not win an award and was not for sale.
Unfortunately I was given wrong information about the quilt exhibit location(s) so I completely missed seeing and photographing the community quilts, so I hope those of you who did photograph those quilts, will share them online. As we arrived we were told all the quilts were on the lower floor. The community (guild challenge) quilts were evidently on another floor and we did not see signs. So sorry about that. But I will report on the quilts in the main exhibit. I was not the only one who was looking for the community quilts, and did not see them. It was a topic of discussion in my 3 meetings yesterday. If you are at the show Sunday, I hope you see those quilts!
As usual, there were many quilts with a message about current events. I am especially interested in activist quilts, and fiber art with a message. Those quilts often had a crowd clustered around them, with many taking photos and sparking discussion. QuiltCon is known for including these types of quilts, and it is my favorite thing about this show.
Love and hugs from all of us at eQuilter.com!
