This quilt by Maria Elkins is truly a work of art. At first I thought it was a painting.
It's called Broken Dishes. There is the obvious broken dish in the mother's hand and on the rug. In addition, the wall and the rug are done with the traditional quilt pattern Broken Dishes.
I love the idea and the tender emotion. The more I see of this quilt, the more I want to see it.
You'll find Broken Dishes and several other amazing quilts (Don't miss Evening Star, or Captivated) on Maria's website
Maria gave a lecture at our guild last night, and did a workshop today. Beautiful stuff. You have to see it live. She's amazing!
