Oxymorons: Absurdly Logical Quilts

Oxymorons: Absurdly Logical Quilts Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Synopsis:

An oxymoron is a combination of contradictory or incongruous words. As fabric interpretations of oxymorons, the 40 quilts in a traveling exhibit opening at the Museum of the American quilter's Society in August 2001 are also contradictions - in title, technique, focus, and design. Quilts in the traveling exhibit were made by many respected and well-known designers. From a quilt named Clearly Deafening Silence, and more, each is a riddle in weave. Meet the designers, see their sketches, and learn the unique thought processes, approaches, and techniques used to create each quilt.
