Kaffe Fassett. He is inspiring not only in using color in every style but in utilizing all different facets of textile work. You have only to look at his web site or one of his books and feel the color flowing.

I second for Jean Ray Laury. She told me back in 1984 to do my own thing and ignore everyone else's style. She showed the way and I followed. Blessings to Je

Would love to win this pack! I am so glad that Paula Nadelstern got this honor. I would love it if there were a wing in the museum for a bunch of quiltmakers. I think that Ruth McDowell should be added to a collection in the museum.

Paula’s quilts are amazing and would make an enjoyable exhibit.
This is a FABULOUS!!!! giveaway…….how can you name just one artist as one who should have an exhibit? There are so many talented and deserving people and I think everyone should have a chance to see their works up close and personal. I think I would love to see an exhibit that incorporates the very traditional right alongside some of our best contemporary quilters.

I’ve made 5 of those kaleidoscopes following the instructions in her first book., and loved doing them. I think she really deserves this honor. Also I love the quilts of Ricky Tims, but he’s probably already in some museum, others I really admire are Caryl Bryer Fallert and Philippa Naylor.
Simply Stunning – I would looove to win this pack -if not I think I willhave to try and get it here in Australia! Congratulations your designs are awesome

Kaffe Fassett would receive my nomination as well as Paula N. and Ruth McDowell. All 3 have brought unique perspectives to the world of quilt designs, quilting techniques, and color.
I think Judith Baker Montano should be honored with a Museum exhibit. Her work is different, crazy quilt influenced, and so colorful!
This is probably the greatest give-away ever! I’d like to see a museum exhibit of Pamela Allen’s quilts.
My grandma – she always has two or three quilts in progress, every stitch by hand. I’m lucky enough to have three of her quilts at my house – umbrella girls, crazy squares and one with rings on it.
Paula’s stuff = awesome!

I would nominate Ricky Tims. His quilts are stunning and he not only sews his own quilts but also quilts his own quilts, which a lot of quilt artists these days send out to long arm specialists. In addition Ricky’s designs are accessible to your average quilter because of his innovative techniques that he is willing to share with others.
I subscribe to your newsletter and have always wanted to learn to make a kaleidoscope quilt. They are just beautiful. Paula does such a beautiful job. Would love to see them in person.
I just signed up for your newsletter and am looking forward to it!!
I would love to go to a musuem and see quilts from just the person of the street or even school children. Children have no fear when it comes to using colour.
Happy days.

I think that Carol Doak, as the queen of paper piecing, fits into that category! She has some amazing designs. She’s the one that really pushed foundation paper piecing into the quilter’s world.
I have a blog badge on my sidebar. I just read a few comments before mine and see that I have company about Carol Doak! That’s great!

My friend Karen Riley is an inspiring quilter & excellent ambassador of her craft. She works doing machine quilting, making masterpieces of others treasures & is prolific in her own quilting. She inspires me constantly to try new colurs, patterns & methods in my quilting life & always adds humour & love.
Alex Anderson should be honored for all her hard work over the years of teaching and promoting quilting. I learned to quit from her by watching her show everyday for a year, taking notes and downloading instructions from the Internet. She is a wonderful teacher and mentor.
I subscribed to the newsletter. Can’t wait.
Kaffe Fassett would be an excellent display in a museum . . . or Jinny Beyer.
Thanks for a chance to win. Love the kaleidoscope look!
