Pieces and Strings at the Mississippi Museum of Art
Yesterday my husband, son and I went to the museum to see my quilt hanging. I was very proud to see Kimono Garden hanging in a museum. I have posted a link to the museums exhibit site. The quilt is part of the Mississippi Cultural Crossroads Pieces and Strings exhibit. I made this quilt for a fabric challenge. I received the fabric in the mail and I felt a Victorian quilt was in order but as I thought about the era, I decided an Asian influence would be appropriate. I designed the kimono and used an innovated technique, Inklingo, to make the diamond collar and the cuffs. I then quilted by machine free style.
