Summary |
Emphasizes that the quilting, not only the top, can be just as much of the design as the piecing. New or old, it is the unusual graphic quality of quilts that makes them resemble art, or , in the case of quilt artists, it is the graphic design that is the art. It seems that the least part of a quilt is the quilting. When quilters talk about "designing a quilt," they almost always mean the quilt top. The quilting is almost always considered a supplementary process, with the purpose of which is to emphasize or deemphasize aspects of the graphic design of the top. Quilting simply declined in importance since the time when it was significant part of the quilt as the piecing or applique. |
