Quilts




My mum bought me all the bits I need to make my own quilt at christmas. As we went to see the quilt exhibition at the V&A last year and I fell in love with the idea of making my own.
Some quilts in the exhibition were family treasures that had been handed down for years and told the whole family story. Through to artists taking the idea of quilts to communicate their thoughts, such as Tracy Emine or trying to reinvent the quilt like Caren Garfen (top)
Now I just have to get round to making mine!
