In de categorie ‘Traditioneel’ hing in Birmingham de inzending van de Nederlandse José Gommans: ‘A touch of Vincent’.
Zoals José zelf bij de quilt vermeld: “This is my first large quilt, designed to cover our bed. The panel ‘Arles 1888’ by van Gogh helped me to find the colours for the blocks. It deserved a place in the quilt, this is the result.
‘My moment’ van Lia Meiborg hing in de galerie van The Quilters’Guild Challenge. Het thema was “Four decades – One Moment”. Lia zegt hierover: “My moment was the moment I saw the heart beating on a film-picture of the embryo”.
Herma de Ruiter hing in de galerie van de Art Quilts met haar werk “Drawing the Line”.
“Do you know that feeling, where you give in to what other people ask of you just to keep the peace or because you’re afraid of what will happen if you don’t? Until one day they push you too far and you draw the line, and discover that the world goes on turning and you’re actually a lot happier now?”
