Don't say I didn't warn you.
This is about inspiration from Down-Under. Ever since I first started reading Australian quilt magazines, learning about Australian quilters, and then acquiring books written by them, I've been in love with the work produced in Australia. It inspires me in the sense that it expands my field-of-view in much the same way that traveling the world broadens our horizons. It reminds us that there are options - other ways of thinking and doing.
(This is also a long post and if you like quilt books... it's not my fault.)
You likely know QuiltJane: you may read her blog, follow her on Instagram, or know her patterns. QuiltJane really gets around (after attending Spring 2015 Market in Minneapolis she taught in Iowa and would love to do more international teaching), but she's rooted firmly in Australia.
