Editorial Reviews

Product Description
These are among the most innovative, outstanding quilts being designed today--chosen to appear in the 2001 Quilt National Biennial Exhibition--and a source of new ideas, interest, and excitement for quilt makers, collectors, and enthusiasts alike. Since its inception 22 years ago, the Quilt National exhibit continues to be a showcase for contemporary artists who expand the boundaries of traditional quilt making, creating designs meant for display on walls rather than as covers for beds. It sets the standards and serves as the model for all other art quilt shows. Through the large, spectacular color photographs here, as well as the artists' descriptions of the motivations behind their works, you can enjoy and refer to these quilts as often as you like at home. These designs are wonderful reflections of where quilting has been--and where it's going.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not a How-To Book, But a Feast for the Eyes, October 30, 2001
By A Customer
As the description indicates, this is a showcase book, full of color pictures of the quilts that were part of the Dairy Barn Southeastern Ohio Cultural Arts Center exhibition in 2001. Each page has a large color photo of a quilt, with a brief paragraph on where the artist found the inspiration to create it and the materials used. Do not buy this book if you are looking for how-to instructions on making a quilt. Do buy this book if you are the type who loves to pour over pictures and be inspired by the creativity of others. This is over 100 pages of truely lush eye candy! Also, if you like this sort of thing, be sure to look for the earlier Dairy Barn Quilt National books (some of which may be ordered directly from them if Amazon doesn't have them), and also check out the Fiberarts series of books. You will have to have them all.
