Water Quilts by Mary Lee Eischen

Since the autumn, I have had water quilts on my creative mind.  I entered a piece into a show about water.  And the preciousness of water seemed to want to continue to speak.

Now I have completed six small wall art quilts.  One was highlighted on a blog post here.  It is now the sixth quilt in this series.  There are actually seven quilts.  The seventh is designed and going to a friend.  It still needs to be stitched and hanger finished.  Maybe it will be finished this evening.  My friend said she was not in a hurry.  Hmmm, maybe I need to pretend that she is in a hurry.

 

Here are the quilts that are off to the Lanesboro Arts Center.  If you have not had the wonderful opportunity to see the Lanesboro Arts Center 

give yourself an Artist Date or go with a friend or loved one for a visual treat.  Currently on exhibit is “Land by Hand” showing through June 2, 2012.  It is a beautiful fiber show featuring 15 artists.
