This week, I had great news! This quilt, "Bones and Artichokes", was accepted into the ARTQUILTScultures exhibit at the Page-Walker Center in Cary, NC, Apr 25-May 28, 2008. This show is sponsored by the Professional Art Quilt Alliance-South.
This is my first entry into a juried show, and I am thrilled with its acceptance!
I made this quilt last year for our guild challenge. We were given 3 fabrics, and could add up to 2 more. The theme was growth. As a pediatric endocrinologist, I often evaluate children for growth disorders, and one of the tools I use is an Xray of the hand, called a "bone age". These three hands depict ages 2, 7, an 14 yrs.
Hands were stenciled with puff paint, also used raw edge applique. Machine quilted.
