Bloom'n Tuesday and More Art from "Quilts of a Different Matter"

Remember this succulent plant and its unusual flower? Well Julie told me it's name. "Old name is: Stapeliad variegata, new name is Orbea variegata". Thank you Julie. She also gave me a link to visit and I share it with you if you want to see more of this variety of unusual flower: Here. And this is what it looks like now. It has gone to sleep...or is dying, I am not sure which. Julie?
I still have more photos to show from the Quilts of a Different Matter show and this one is perfect for Bloomin' Tuesday!
I liked the use of beads for seeds in the center.
It is so precious to me to see how my grand kids showed interest looking at the various art pieces by themselves.
Love how the wall color makes this quilt pop!
Nice mixture of drawing on fabric too...
Doesn't this one make you want to get up and dance with them? Did me!
And here are Kirks nine glass pieces hanging like a quilt.
Oh, and there's one of mine again!
Another Ann Jacob's piece in metals.
And I know Jane Waters put a lot of time into layering this digital piece.
This piece is by Robin Rossi.
I like it very much. Okay, shows over here. It can still be seen at the Lawler House Art Gallery till end of January.

Happy bloomin' Tuesday!

  2. Oh bummer.. the flower is going away. guess it was just a flower. Interesting plants. Love Love Love that sunflower quilt. Lots of pretties here and I do like the wall colors showing them off instead of just white. It's been fun going to the gallery show with you.

  8. This has got to be the BEST show. I'm still in love with Ann Jacobs. Her quilts are the best! I can't believe how much of this I've missed. I'm still looking and exploring. My week from hades has just gotten worse due to spotty internet problems today. I'm off to see what else I've missed.
