Captain John went to Grand Rapids, Michigan for the AQS show in 2012 and came back with images of Egypt. Here are the fabulous quilts of Jenny Bowker and her friends the Tentmakers of Cairo. Jenny is the curator of the Stitch Like an Egyptian Exhibit featuring the Tentmakers of Cairo. The applique work has to be seen to be believed and as you can see the prices in the last four years have doubled.
Would you like to own an applique of your very own? TQS is giving one away and you could win.
