Featured Quilt - First Place Pictorial at Houston 2021
One of the
most fun things about quilts is the scenes they can bring to life that you sometimes can only dream of. Beckey Prior did that with her wonderfully whimsical quilt, Harlequinade, which won First Place in the Pictorial category at Houston 2021. Quilted by Jackie Brown, Beckey says, "Harlequinade is a theatrical quilt filled with visual clues guiding viewers to discover the hidden story. Inspired by Venetian Carnival masks and commedia del'arte characters, the quilt features the antics of Harlequin, the trickster, who has his own ideas about freedom and fun!"
