Caveman Txts at Houston
Earlier in the year I entered my quilt 'Caveman Txts' into SAQA's Text Messages Exhibition and it was selected! Click here to see the whole exhibition.
This exhibition is currently showing at Houston. I wish I was there!
The fabric is rusted, even the blue. The background images are lino printed and freezer paper stencils as are the words.
The idea was the comparison with caveman drawings and text messaging today. Cave drawings have survived forever, text messages, once deleted, are gone forever (mostly!).

Txting
Earlier in the year my quilt "Caveman Txts" was selected for SAQA's "Text Messages" Exhibition.
This week I've been preparing to ship it off to the US. The first showing is at International Quilt Festival in Houston from 31 October until 4 November. I wish I could travel as much as my quilts do!
A wee glimpse ...
The fabric is rusted (using equal amounts of water and vinegar), the various images have been lino printed or painted. Having a farmer FIL with an almost endless supply of rusty objects has been very useful.
