The Highway Gallery in Mt Waverley held an exhibition of textiles from around the world and named the exhibition
Material Girls. The exhibition had fashion, craft, photographs and fabrics from India, China, Japan, Vietnam, Africa, Australia and Holland just to name a few.
There was a beautiful red silk hand-painted kimono from Japan.

There were so many beautiful garments from all over the world. The gallery asked the Waverley Art Quilters if we would like to exhibit our Indian inspired quilts in the show. Here are a few that were in the exhibition.

It was lovely to see our art quilts on display. The exhibition is over now so I cannot suggest you go and see it. It is great to have a gallery that is interested in showcasing textiles and so
Waverley Patchworkers is very happy to support them.
Bye for now,
Linda

So true Robbie, how did we manage without the internet? I love living in the modern era.
