CarolBailey Heaven and Earth - I started quilting classes in October 2006 with Mary Wasley where I learned solid beginning technique, quilting confidence, and the realization that I was not a "by the pattern" person. After a course based on S.Cummings book: "Thinking Outside the Block", again with Mary, I realized if I could "think" or "feel" an idea, I could quilt it. Well, the wonderful world of creative quilting opened up for me - and it is a joy! Roger's quilt hangs on the wall above our bed, and works very well with the art prints we have by J.Miro also in our bedroom. For this reason, I don't know if it would be considered an Art Quilt or an Contemporay Quilt. You decide.
