Making my original contemporary art quilts is my passion and my sanity as I try to piece together imaginary landscapes of time and space. www.etsy.com/shop/annbrauer

An original quilt made by sewing many thin strips of cotton fabric going through the cotton batting onto the back. Machine quilted. #landscape #dawn #abstractfiber #quilt #modenquilt #originalquilt

I figured it was time to celebrate spring with a new quilt which I called "begin the new day"--what do you think? It is 32 by 60 inches, machine pieced and quilted in an original design. #artquilt #pieced #original #art #sunrise #quilted

I love serendipity. Forty years ago I did a major craft show in Washington DC and sold a quilt to a young lawyer. I still remember her quiet deliberation although the quilt is forgotten. I was working on another project when my name was mentioned. Sure enough, this runner is now hers.

It may still be white and wintery outside--isn't it time for some bright cheery place mats in shades of teal. At least that is my thought. #tabledecor #soldonetsy #quiltedmats #spring #artistmade

Great idea--baseball bats would be perfect for Boston. But they aren't going to listen to me. Oh well.

You could be right. It will be interesting to see what happens.

I agree--I think they just wanted something to fill the space and maybe create a conversation piece.

That would be nice. Alas I have no say in the matter.

I finally got some images of the series of quilts I made for a hotel in Boston. What do you think? And--no--I had no idea they were going to use sleds as filler. I guess that is an interesting concept. Hmmm. #artquilts #commission #hotel #series #landscape
