Here we go with more quilts from Quilt Market 2012 in Houston. Its a HUGE exhibition by the way. I am only covering quilts that catch my eye first time through each section as I only had a chance for one time through. Here goes, for a look through my curatorial eye, such as it is. And there are lots more to come in future postings..

Wasn’t Houston amazing? I wanted to blog about Marja’s quilt, but my photos were dodgy. I hope it’s OK that I used yours in my blog post. http://fabricsalad.com/?p=399. Cheers!
