| Brynwood Needleworks - World Quilt Show - Neroli Henderson's "Coco" |
I'm sharing a few images from the 2015 Orlando World Quilt Show today.
I have more photos, but these are some of my favorites, so I hope you'll like them.
This first quilt is called "Coco", created by Neroli Henderson of St. Kilda, Australia. Coco is 17 years old, and was a mistreated show dog, rescued by Neroli and her family.
The sweet bichon frise' face on the quilt is surrounded by machine stitched text that explains how Coco came to live with his new family incorporating humor in the story. The quilt employs trapunto, confetti (without a sheer overlay); text and free machine quilting.
It's adorable.

This is Donna Douglass' "Flourish On The Vine". Ms. Douglass lives in Appolo Beach, FL. She used hand piecing and applique' techniques, along with machine quilting. I love her choices of shades of peach and green.

ReplyDeleteEach of these quilts is so beautiful and I can only imagine the labor of love and time sewn into each and every stitch. To see them in person must have been quite an honor. Thank you for sharing these. Monday Bliss...
