Last week I went to the L.A. County Fair, and since I couldn’t bring you back any cotton candy, I thought I’d share some eye candy with you. These photos are from the Home & Gardens: Gateway to Africa exhibit.
Here are some wonderful botanical masks (by Jacquelyn Guffre). I always thought it would be fun to create a mask quilt. I love the colors, designs and expressions on these masks.
This elegant floral display (by Susan Ayala, AIFD) looks like it might have been inspired at least in part by a patchwork quilt!
These lovely gerberas seem to glow. Whether you prefer realistic, stylized or whimsical, gerberas would make a great subject for a quilt.
happy quilting! =(^_^)=



Gerberas are my favourite flowers; they are so bright and in so many different colours. I once had almost 100 of them in a huge vase for daughter to pick her favourites for her confirmation. I really should have taken a picture; I'll probably never do it again.
Neat fair!!
