Presenting a gallery of a few of my favorite quilts from IQA Long Beach 2009. To me quilts are art, even traditional quilts, so here’s a bit of fun for you:
At most quilt shows, the quilts are hung on draped black fabric. What might those same quilts look like in an art gallery or museum setting? Take a look and find out! (Gallery/Museum backdrops by Photofunia)
