Wide Horizons V - Very Important - 2 quilts missing

Between Wide Horizons being shown at the German Guild AGM in Furth in Germany in June and the quilts being returned to Carrefour/European Patchwork Meeting in France, two quilts have gone missing. They belong to Sandy Snowden and Maria Billings. If you know anything about these quilts, contact SAQA Europe and ME either by adding a comment here or emailing us at  saqa.europe.me@gmail.com or Christine by clicking on her name.

Below are images of both quilts:

Generosity by Maria Billings

Ramshackled by Sandy Snowden

Wide Horizons V - Brenda Wroe, Karma Chamelion

Karma Chameleon

Mastering the artistic use of a longarm machine to create this wholecloth quilt has been personally challenging, pushing my skillset towards a Wider Horizon. Inspired by a chameleon basking in the sunshine amongst some verdant foliage, I hummed the Boy George song and mused whether it might change in colour.

Wholecloth quilt, entirely hand guided free motion quilting on a longarm quilting machine.

Radiance silk cotton hand-dyed by artist. Double layer 100% wool wadding and 100% cotton wadding. Trilobal polyester thread 40wt.

Wide Horizons V - Christine Seager, 1883 - Krakatua

1883 - Krakatua

The small volcanic island, Krakatua, off the west coast of Java, erupted in 1883. One of the most deadly in modern history, its effects were felt in Africa and Australasia. From a beach house overlooking Krakatua, we enjoyed evening vistas of a mildly smoking Krakatua against the setting sun. Amazing.

The hand dyed cloth represents the sea, sand, volcanic ash and fires of Krakatua whilst the mark making symbolises the turmoil on land and sea created by the event.

Own hand dyed fabrics, mono-printed marks. Improvisational cutting and piecing. Simple machine stitch.

Wide Horizons V - Isabelle Wiessler, Horizonte III

Horizonte III

This quilt is one of a landscape series that are suggesting the skyline, each one does focus on the colors depending on the daytime or weather. My goal with my artwork is to give the public enough space to make up their own dream.

Hand dyed cotton, machine quilted, hand painted

Cotton fabric, batting, acrylic paint

Wide Horizons V - Tiziana Tateo, annequins

Mannequins

Figures are my favourite subjects because of the feelings, emotions and dialogue they convey.

The inspiration for my work came looking at a shop window, where two mannequins seemed to look at me saying: "Come in, please, and help us get dressed!".

Freely scoring and bonding on synthetic fabric and felt using soldering iron, hand painting, free machine embroidering

Synthetic fabric, felt, raffia,fabric colors, sizoflor, plastic net, tulle

Wide Horizons V - Sandy Snowden, Ramshackle: Country Community

Ramshackle: Country Community

Part of my series of Ramshackle houses about neighbourhood and community. This piece recognises the rural community. Distances and even differences do not matter when someone is in need of a neighbourly hand.

Fused raw edge reverse appliqué, Self guided quilting

Cotton, fusible web, cotton batting
