My March Modern Mini: Four Seasons

The Back - the binding still needs stitching. I used blue to represent the sky.

It was fun to take photo at Hammonasset State Park Beach on Long Island Sound, but it was cold and windy.

I used Invisifil tan thread and did even and uneven lines, which is my favorite modern style of quilt to do.

On Saturday I visited the New England Quilt Museum, Lowell, MA. It is a wonderful museum and the quilts displays are thoughtful, creative and impeccably hung.
I went to see my friend, Wendy! Her blog The Constant Quilter is one of my favorites. Here we are with Laura who works at the museum (lucky!) Pam gave a great gallery talk but I didn't get a chance to snag her for a photo.
For the Fun of It - Quilts from the Collection of Gerald Roy was my favorite exhibit. These have never been displayed publicly until now.
Stunning quilting. I love dark thread on a lighter ground.
I don't fancy this quilt, personally, but the quilting deserves my admiration.
I'm not a fan of Joseph's Coat, but this quilting is fabulous.
This pineapple was all velvet and silk, ooh la la.
Bump-badda-DA My Favorite! Pink and Yellow Prince's Feather!! Where are the smelling salts?
Here is a video with all the quilts that I missed while visiting. You'll hear me call the Museum the "exhibit" and at the end you'll hear my response to Wendy's telling me she has to go.....
It was a great visit and I was so inspired by all the COLOR in this exhibit. I highly recommend you see these beauties in person if at all possible.
I will have more quilts from the museum to share next time.
