Quilt Art 25

Photo from http://www.quiltmuseum.org.uk/exhibitions/
Went to York Quilt Museum and Gallery yesterday, to see an exhibition called Quilt Art 25.  Quilt Art is a group of twenty textile artists who've been collaborating for 25 years, hence the title.  The exhibition was very good, some beautiful work providing great inspiration.

Unfortunately there was a strict 'No photography' policy, which I do understand but find frustrating, so this is a detail from High Tide Low Tide - Broadstairs/Kent, by Inge Hueber, used by the museum to promote the exhibition on their website.  It is a beautiful quilt, the piecing of different shades is incredibly skillful and I liked that she'd chosen to leave the raw edges visible so it was like seeing the reverse of the quilt.
