Quilt photos

We are on slow-speed dial-up here in the country, an hour north of a major city, seven minutes from a town with high-speed, but do you think it's coming our way?? Noooo! so to download the posting message here on the board takes a full minute and by then, my mind has forgotten what it was going to say.....oh, yes....pictures of quilts......that was it.

I've been quilting since my early twenties and that was far too long ago but what I've always loved about quilting is the fact that no matter how 'high-brow' the designs of quilts get and who makes them, there are often tiny hands showing on either side of a quilt and oftentimes, legs sticking out from below the quilt with feet attached. Now if you were from outerspace, how would you ever figure this one out?!

It's what keeps quilting on a grassroots level, to my way of thinking. Sure, there are many photos of quilts taken in exhibits or hung on walls but the random shots of a quilt just made so often shows that quilts are still made by people and that human is usually at the other end of the hands holding the quilt.

The ability to include quilt pictures here on the board is a wonderful one, Eric and Sue...what a delight to tune into the Bulletin Board these days.
