Last exhibition piece

This is the last quilt for the exhibition 'Southern Lands' curated by Dijanne Cevaal and going to Germany and France. I managed to get the whole lot in the post today - 3 day courier to Germany. Not cheap but hopefully safe. I also managed to get the commission for the Wellington company done and in to their office. Now I am excavating the floor to find all the bills and reciepts I have left all around the house. I might even manage to cook some dinner for the kids tonight before rushing out to a meeting. I don't know if anyone will read this blog but over the next 5 weeks I intend to put the results of my daily experiments which I'll be doing as part of my 'artist residency' at Whitireia. I'm happy to share techniques if anyone wants to have a go at the same time.

Southern lands exhibition quilts



Here are three quilts which I have made for the 'Southern lands' exhibition curated by Dijanne Cevaal, which will be shown in Europe. I need to make one more of these 50cm square quilts before tomorrow so that I can post them. The top one is called 'Waterways' and was inspired by a photo sent to me by a geologist friend who likes to use Google earth to home in on old ruins and interesting textures.
