She is healthy again and once in while she bemoans the fact that I no longer have a tea company to cater afternoon teas for her and her clients. So I decided to have her over at my home and she brought her friend Donna. I also invited Ana Paula, my Argentinian Camino friend who is an artist when it comes to quilting. I asked her to bring some of her quilts and so she did and what a show and tell we enjoyed.
Let the Show begin.
Ana does traditional quilts, but she specializes in Art quilts. Her technique is precise and she uses free hand machine quilting and embellishments to create her quilted paintings.
A combination of tradition and new. The portrait has tiny tiny square.
Black and White quilting
Memories of Japan, a few years ago she attended and International Quilt show and competition.

The Lady in Green
Pilgrim on the Camino
Ana has plans to create 33 quilts depicting the 33 stages of the Camino Frances. These quilts will be part of a quilt show in a park. She aims to have this showing in Summer 2016.
Oh that is one of her favorite quilts.. Marilyn Monroe.
In case you are wondering, YES we did get to have our afternoon tea. A festive table set for my friends.
This time, the Tardis truly became a part of the Afternoon Tea service.
Until next time, Sip a cup of sunshine, Sip a Cup of Tea.
Oh my! These ladies are very talented. Please tell them their masterpieces are admired. I loved your table and tea time as well!
ReplyDeleteAlways nice to have tea with friends. I would love to try the Golden Monkey tea. Sounds interesting.
ReplyDeleteWhat a special tea time. I loved the amazing quilts. I must say Marilyn Monroe would be a favorite, but that one from the Camino is also just amazing. Thanks for sharing them.
