What's For Dinner Exhibit and More

 One of the most interesting 

and revealing things

about the 

Quilt Show

at IQF/Houston

was the diversity in Exhibits.

A wonderful peek into our Culture as Quilters.

What's For Dinner

featured a long beautiful hardwood

 banquet table

full of 

unique and original

quilted "Place Settings"

 Co-curated by Jamie Fingul and Leslie Tucker Jenison

they wrote

"Quilters not only have a passion for fabric, notions,

and sewing machines, 

but also a passion for food!

Whether it's going out to eat or

cooking something in their own kitchen,

this is a creative interest and/ or hobby

in which many quilters take part.

 "We have 'Set The Table' with quilts

depicting 'place settings'

complete with place mat/tablecloth

napkin, fork, knife, spoon, and

a plate full of 

What's For Dinner"

 For me as a viewer,

the interpretations 

looked quite real.

 Yes, those mac and cheese noodles are

made from fabric.

 There were many, many Exhibits

So much more to Quilting than quilts.

Some featured dolls

 Others, amazing categories such as

Wearable Art

 Scarlett's Crimson

by Philippa Naylor

Inspired by the Couture Ballgown Designs

of the 1950's

With a show as big as IQF Houston

the Exhibits become more and more 

creative with each

passing year.
