Susan became very interested in a band that she discovered through NPR known as The David Wax Museum. The band combines American folk, Mexican son, and bits of bluegrass and the blues. After watching one of the band's videos she decided to create a work that illustrated the band. There is, of course, quite a bit more to the story of David Wax Museum: 3 of potholders (Coins) in the Kitchen Tarot.
The quilt was begun 4-29-12 and finished on 6-9-12 and is 60.25" x 76.25" It is a whole cloth, painted quilt. To learn the whole story behind the quilt, click here.

I Dreamed I Was a Flower by fiberwoman
It is with a heavy heart that we share with you the news that Richard "Rick" Billings, husband of TQS member fiberwoman, passed away peacefully at hospice on Tuesday, June 12, 2012, just three months after being diagnosed with cancer.
Rick was a golf enthusiast and woodworker, turning out one-of-a-kind pens. Now he is perfecting his putt on Heaven's greens. He was a kind soul with a streak of spunk, reveling in teasing his family and friends even to his final days. He will be missed tremendously. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Jan and her entire family.
