The Houston's International Quilt Festival in Texas features – among others – the exquisite artistry of the Hungarian quilts, a 16-piece exhibit of Hungarian blue-dyed fabrics and folk-art motifs in the first days of November in the George R. Brown Convention Center.
As the Houston Chronicle reports, each quilt is an ingenious composition of Hungarian blue-dyed fabrics and folk-art motifs. One reflects the variety of snowflakes' shapes, another the tiles on an old stove. Several quilts were done by a group, each block designed by an individual.
The paper quotes curator Anna Dolányi who says the 16-piece exhibit represents the best work of the Hungarian Patchwork Guild, a group she co-founded to introduce quilting to her country. While patchwork quilting was uncommon in Hungary before the guild was founded in 1989, the blue-dye process dates back to the 1770s.
