New Year - New show at the Medford Library

To start off the New Year, the Rogue Art Quilters have a show at the Medford Public Library. The theme is books or reading and we all used one particular batik in a variety of colors. We also had to put text on the quilt somewhere. This gentleman belongs to Terry Stone.


Sarah Breckenridge did a lot of bead work and hand quilting.


Rona Barnes used lots of "fish tales" for her quilt. Can you identify all of the stories? Her sign gives the answers:








Patty Duggan created a whimsical piece with a book worm on it.





Pat Gleitzman featured "The Secret Garden" in her quilt. Wonderful details:




I photographed my two favorite kids, Shoshana and Ilan and photo transfered them to fabric.



Elaine Turcke used her grandaughter as her model.


Denise Johnson used Rumi for inspiration.

Cynthia Mckee scanned books onto tissue paper which she affixed to fabric. The bindings on some of them look like real leather. This is one to see close up.

Photos just don't do it justice.



Christine Smith retitled her books to be appropriate for cats.



Carol Stocking opted for a book on Penguins

Her ice is fabulous. The show will be hanging for a few months so all you locals should check it out.
