Pathways (We Are Here) by Amy Anderson This month’s puzzle spotlights a quilt titled Pathways (We Are Here) made by Amy Anderson of Asheville, North Carolina for the 2014 Quilt Alliance contest and auction, Inspired By. Materials and techniques include: cotton, machine piecing and quilting Artist’s Statement Vintage quilts are often strikingly modern in appearance. As a modern quilter, I often think about my place in the long history of quilting. All quilters share one path – albeit one with dead ends, side roads, loops and forks, twists and turns. The inspiration for this quilt is a labyrinth, but for me the practice of quilting is truly a puzzle with no beginning or end.

Quilted Mary: Watches Over Those Who Quilt by Victoria Findlay Wolfe This month’s puzzle spotlights a quilt titled Quilted Mary: Watches Over Those Who Quilt made by Victoria Findlay Wolfe of New York, NY for the 2012 Quilt Alliance contest and auction, Home Is Where the Quilt Is. The quilt is machine and hand pieced, machine and hand quilted, embroidered, all cotton fabrics and batting Artist’s Statement My grandmother, a quilter, always had a statue of Mary in her garden surrounded by a bathtub as her shrine. Grandma was serious about her religion, but never took herself too seriously and had a great sense of humor. So I associate the image of MARY with very fond memories of her. To capture that, I figured, one must have a “Quilted Mary.” Why not! Wink! About Quilt Alliance We rely on the generous support of donors and members like you to sustain our projects.
