Quilting has always been an art form as well as a practical craft. Modern day quilters have taken this art to new heights. Rather than patterns or traditional fabric collages of symbols and pictures, modern quilt artists design landscapes, abstract art, and even portraits in fabric.
This fascinating hobby is obviously not for everyone. It takes patience and skill, but if you love to draw or paint as well as sew, quilt art may be for you.
Quiltart Gallery was started in 1995 as a way for modern quilt artists to showcase their creations.
