About the book >.>.> Whether you’ve been quilting as long as Gwen has and you’ve seen her quilt art change over the years from appliqu? and traditional patchwork to her liberated style or you’ve come to know her more recently for her abstract and minimal pieces I think you’ll find that Gwen has continually grown and developed and challenged herself as an artist all the while remaining true to her own sensibilities. Meeting Gwen in person after years of enjoying her work was truly one of the highlights of my years in the quilting industry. Like her quilts she’s a bit unconventional and a whole lot of fun! But whether you have the opportunity to meet Gwen and take a class from her or you simply love her quilts and folk art I’m sure you will enjoy this beautiful collection of quilts that Gwen has been making since the early 1970s. She curated the collection herself. As you pore over the pages of these magnificent quilts and study the lines the color combinations and the textures remember that it is just a sampling (a large sampling yet still only a portion) of Gwen’s lifelong work as a quilt artist. It’s a treasure that she has kept them all and we are honored that she’s willing to share them with all of us. (SP)
