You have seen the wonderful quilt, Grape Harvest in our pictures from PIQF and Road to California. The quilt won Best of Show at Road. I was surprised to see the quilt matched with the picture at the Manteca, California quilt show.
Lynn's husband is with an organization that matches mural artists with cities that are looking for art. Lynn saw the picture by Jessie and knew it needed to be a quilt.
It turns out that Jessie lives in Manteca and was honored to display the picture with the quilt at the show. Jessie made his living as a commercial artist. This was his first painting in 35 years. An interesting side note is that all the pictures of the workers are self portraits, except for the far right which is John Leandro the owner of the vineyard.
Lynn won an award at Manteca with another quilt. Come back later today to see it.
