Denyse: <\/STRONG>\u201cI\u00a0had been admiring old quilts (late 19th century, but also early 20th century), but found that what I loved about them \u2013 simple color palettes, lots of solid fabrics, a spareness and sometimes quirkiness \u2013 wasn\u2019t being widely referenced in contemporary quilts. Art quilters were making quilts to be hung that were more conceptual or about making a statement, home quilters were using traditional palettes with way too many prints and colors that were murky, and the commercial world \u2013 quilts made overseas for department or specialty stores, were not very exciting. I loved the history and lore of quilting, the community and family feeling of it, and the tactile-ness and collective memory of fabric combined with designs that are very graphic. As a designer, I wanted to get other people to see quilts in the same way that I did, to bring this amazing craft to a wider audience\u201d.<\/EM><\/DIV><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n
