I would call them 'contemporary'. I know quilters disagree about labeling, but I think it is helpful.msalleycathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14638319811989196392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7049028683848104380.post-86039263897573873332014-08-28T01:11:15.633-06:002014-08-28T01:11:15.633-06:00Great quilts.

It's beautiful.<br />I do object, though, to those quilters who win at a show and then enter the same quilt--again and again, in a variety of quilt shows--and then announce--five time winner. I think q shows should stop this practice--it lessens the playing field and is just plain silly.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7049028683848104380.post-50095127405485083802014-08-27T16:36:37.253-06:002014-08-27T16:36:37.253-06:00Thanks for taking the time to share these quilt pi...Thanks for taking the time to share these quilt pics.
