One of Those Weeks....

This is one of those weeks when I am in textile over-stimulation mode.

I can hardly settle down to work after seeing the new exhibit at the International Quilt Study Center in Lincoln. The work of Yvonne Wells is being shown.


A photo of  her Going Home quilt has been my laptop screen saver for years. Here's a detail shot.


I loved the faces in her quilts. Aren't they marvelous?

from Ugly Faces, 1990
Me, Masked II, 1993

Read more about it. Go see if if you can, it's heavenly....there until Feb. 26, 2012....

Oh yes, here's one more face - Michael Jackson's. Love the little musical notes:
