Garden Tour, part II

I'm just going to post a variety of the textile artwork that we displayed in the garden. Corienne did the woven hangings and several stuffed animals made from hand woven fabric, Maureen made a large wild colored hanging that we hung on the monkey bars, and a long floral that was hung from the rafters of the BBQ structure. Pat's children's quilt, based on the book "Brown Bear, Brown Bear" was thrown artistically over the hammock, and another hanging was hung from a bird feeder. The trees around the pool had low hanging branches, perfect for hangings, and the gardeners finally decided they were Alaskan Yellow Cedar. Various other art quilts were by Amy, Peggy, Jana, Maureen and Pat, and hung on rock patio walls, and wooden deck railings and assorted other spots. Kay's couple in the hot tub masterpiece "Aged to Perfection" was a big hit for it's humor. Peggy also had several watercolor paintings in nice frames that she had brought along, and a collage of old sewing ephemera, also framed. By four o'clock the heat was starting to get to us, and we took everything down in record time, packed up and called it a successful day. Thank you to our hosts Mr & Mrs Lieder for their hospitality and wonderful garden.
