Oh, The Places you’ll Go! (Dr. Seuss)

by Judith Flynn
Size:  33 3/4” X 35”
Fabric: 100% Cotton

While this pattern is based on a very simple Baby Block/Tumbling Block design, the complexity of construction and planned use of light, medium, and dark fabrics results in this strong graphic design.

An artist’s pallet and brush set the theme of this piece.  The words make art, create and be creative are machine appliqued onto and quilted into this wall-hanging.  Perfect words to inspire an artist.  

BE CREATIVE was made by Barbara Marcone. A resident of Kent since 2015,  Barbara has been quilting for 18 years. Designing her own hand appliqued quilts are Barbara’s favorite quilts to make. Little pieces of fabric hand stitched on a background fabric to tell a story and make someone smile. Barbara has won many awards at local and regional quilt shows and her quilts have hung in national exhibits.

STEM STUDIES
by Barbara Marcone 
Quilt size:  41 1/2” wide x 53” high 

Free Hexses constructed from upcycled men’s linen work shirts reclaimed from the Quality thrift shop in Kent. The top fabric is 100 % linen from brands like Brooks Brothers, Charles Tyrwhitt, and Banana Republic. The pieces were cut freehand on the bias to maximize fabric, visual interest and ensure nothing matched. The quilting was done free motion by Alicia.

Alicia Winter is a Connecticut native who came to Kent in 2001 via Colorado. After a career breeding KWPN Warmblood sport horses while raising two sons, she taught gardening at The Marvelwood School. A long-time knitter who came to quilting recently, Alicia especially loves handwork and mending, including Sashiko and Boro. When she’s not in her garden, she can be found working on her novel.

This quilt features fabrics promoting STEM studies: science, technology, engineering and math.  Look closely at the quilt and see scientific formulas, simple math, binomial nomenclature, rocket ships, an airplane and, just because...I have added  a few dogs.  

Scraps of fabrics, leftover bits from other quilts, make up this quilt.  It was pieced together using an improvisational technique: scraps of fabric sewn together at odd angles with no rhyme or reason.  This method is definitely not “rocket science”.   

This Stem Quilt was made by Barbara Marcone.  A resident of Kent since 2015, Barbara has been quilting for 18 years.  Designing her own hand applique quilts are Barbara’s favorite quilts to make.  Little pieces of fabric hand stitched on a background fabric to tell a story and make someone smile. Barbara has won many awards at local and regional quilt shows and her quilts have hung in national exhibits.

The name of this quilt is a reference to the pattern name-Disappearing Nine-Patch- and my strong belief that music, both instrumental and vocal, should remain a vital part of all educational programs.
