Exhibitions: Old Favourites
Log Cabin blocks and Australiana
Artist’s Statement:
Collecting Australian household items from bygone eras has been a passion of mine for most of my adult life. How wonderful to meet a fellow collector — my new husband, Bob. His loves are hand tools, and toys from last century.
Log Cabin Blocks
The Log Cabin block has been a favourite design for quilters for several generations, and can be straight, irregular, skewed or triangular. I have used different variations of this block in these pieces, to suit the quilt’s topic.
The images were taken with my Fuji FinePix 2400 digital camera, retouched in Adobe Photoshop CS2, and printed on ColorPlus™ fabric.

This exhibition was shown in Perth in 2006 where I was special guest at the True Blue Exhibitions Annual Craft Show.
