"The Beauty of Life"

 

 

World Quilt Results

JULIE was delighted to recieve this exciting news this week. "The Beauty of Life" was inspired by William Morris's 1880 lecture of the same title. The design began as a botanical study- "tree of life"; a theme that led to the huge body of work by Morris and his associates of the Art and Crafts movement; tapestries, fabrics, printed fabrics,embroideries and stained glass. William Morris defined art and beauty together as integral to life itself. The theme Julie stitched here represents the act of creating and expressing that is a vital and integral part of her life. She utilized a number of design and visual elements that held historic, symbolic and personal visual references for her.

Congratulations and well done to fellow Australian quilter Marlene King who won second prize in Innovative quilts class with her quilt "Travels".

Gwenda's Journey

Julie Haddrick

 

Julie had great success with her Quilt - Gwenda's Journey. Made for a friends 80 year old mother, Gwenda, this quilt depicts images from her walking and completing the 1200km Heysen Walking Trail in SA. Done over a period of some years, Gwenda's diaries and photo album provided the inspiration and vision for this wonderful quilt. The quilt is now happily hanging back in Gwenda's lounge room.
