    Those are amazing and the folded fabric that lady did is incredible! And the thread painting is very awesome. What a marvilous show. Thank you for sharing.

    Absolutely fabulous to see the cultural differences displayed in the quilts. I was especially interested in the thread painting with the bolts, the stamps and the tea bags as I have been using tea bags in a lot of the work that I am doing at the moment. Thank you very much for posting them.

    Just for your interest, I donīt think you can see clearly in the picture but the tea bags were dyed with different colours of tea, I wish I could remember the name of the leaf she used, its a white almost opal affect petal from a flower that dries that way. it will come back to me LOL probably in the middle of the night

    Thank you for giving us the opportunity to see so many different quilts from different areas in the world. I love the thought that all over the world people are into quilting.

    That one made with the tiny square of fabric was unbelieveable. That must have taken her forever to make that. I just would not have that much patience. The squares would just keep getting bigger and bigger as I went along.

    Thanks again.

    Wow! What a variety! I like the pillow. Don't know if I would have the eye wallhanging though, might feel like I'm being watched. Love the threadwork, and "Oh my." The lady folding and sewing all the cones, she must have persistence and patience. Beautiful.
