Making Gifts for Friends

These are sections of a group quilt about the Carousel at the Pike in Long Beach; I made each artist a fabric shrine to honor their portion of the group quilt (view the quilt on Cut-Loose Quilters blog)
above is Cindy Cooksey's rabbit

above is Vickie Valdez-Green's Lion

  1. Those are absolutely delightful, Jamie -- although ALL your work is!

  2. I'm not quite sure why these are called shrines, though they are delightful little quiltlets.
    Can you explain?

  4. Jamie, I love these! I see "mendoquilts" asked the same question I was wondering about ... what makes these beautiful little pieces "shrines"? Are they mounted or made three-dimensional in someway?

  5. Oh, they are lovely. I'd like to know what makes them shrines as well.
