Quilt Exhibit: Square Quilts from High Road Quilter

 

 

Hello! Welcome back to the Musee de la Grande Route. There are two types of quilts that can be called square quilts. One is quilts that finish to a size that is square. The other is quilts that are made out of squares. Our current exhibit is showcasing quilts that are made mostly out of square blocks (and a few rectangles). I have enough quilts to show you the square ones that I have omitted the ones that are made only with rectangles.

 


I believe this is my only finished quilt that is made only with squares.


 This quilt is ...

Quilt Exhibit: Animal Quilts from High Road Quilter

 

Hello! Welcome back to the Musee de la Grande Route. You are in for a special treat today. I am showcasing a specially curated selection of quilts of my animal (and insects) quilts.Some of these quilts have already been featured in the museum, but today you get to see them with new friends. 

 

A lot of these quilts were made for my rotating quilt collection, so they are seasonal. Wedding Wishes has lots of butterflies.


I enjoyed this technique for making the llama.

This one was one of my very first art quilts. I used dishwasher detergent to fade ...

People Quilts Exhibit from High Road Quilter


Hello! Welcome back to the Musee de la Grande Route. You are in for a special treat today. I am showcasing a specially curated selection of quilts of my portrait quilts.  In this time of isolation and social distancing, I thought I would show you some people. 

 


First off, here is Kamaria. She is fairly new as she joined our collection in January. I really like her unplanned chin.


 

Next we have the recently named Rose. I just named her, even though she joined our quilt collection in February of 2020. I like her unplanned jaw line.

 


 Fuschia Fairy joined ...

Elephant Quilt Exhibit from High Road Quilter

 

Hello! Welcome back to the Musee de la Grande Route.  You are in for a treat again today - a showcase of a specially curated selection of quilts. Today, I am featuring quilts I have made that have elephants in them. Long time readers who have already seen the quilts are rewarded with brand new photos they have never seen.


You may have seen this photo already, but it was in 2009 and it is tucked away someplace safe right now.

This one is from 2015. It is a brand new photo. I was able to use my brand "new" porch ...

Scrap Quilts Exhibit from High Road Quilter

 

Hello! Welcome back to the Musee de la Grande Route.  You are in for a treat today - a showcase of a specially curated selection of quilts.  Presenting a curated selection of the scrap quilts Shasta has made. While there are many more scrap quilts in the Work in Progress Hall and more completed scrap quilts in the Repository, all of the curated quilts in this exhibit are completed quilts. I limited myself to 15 pictures to avoid overwhelming you. In this way, future exhibits can present additional quilts as the collection evolves.

In order to give you a large selection ...

Tree Quilts from High Road Quilter

In February, I curated some red and white quilts to show you.  A virtual High Road Museum, if you will.  In French, that would be Musée de la Grande Route, which sounds fabulous to me, so welcome back to my museum. I don't know French so if that isn't right, please let me know.


Since I showed you a finished tree quilt yesterday, I decided to find my collection of tree quilts to show you.  I added a label for that to some of my older posts, and hope that didn't mess up your blog feed.

This ...
