Meet Eleanor McCain

Take a look at these fabulous quilts by art quilter Eleanor McCain in Florida. See her "Thirteen Series" too. I think my favorite is the complicated one below. Talk about "over the top!" Bravo, Eleanor!

    The lady loves color! And is utterly unafraid to use it. It's great to see someone being so bold.

    Ha! I have figured out over the many, many years of going to quilt shows that I love solids. My eye is always directed to quilts made with solid colours or those fabrics that read as solid. These are great. Bravo.
