Imagine Hope

DateSaturday, October 3, 2009 at 5:48AM

If I credited one person with inspiring me to consider the contemporary side of quilting it would be Hollis Chatelain.

I can vividly remember the first time I saw The Grandfather.  The love and kindness on the grandfather's face as he peeled the orange; the intent stare of the child waiting for the juicy treat.  My eyes could not drink in the detail fast enough.

Hollis has set up an organization called Imagine Hope Awareness Through Art.  Fourteen of her works will be on display at the Houston International Quilt Festival at the Imagine Hope booth (#814). I will be volunteering at Hollis's booth on Wednesday night and Friday morning and would love to meet you!
