The The West Australian Quilters' Association
 

Stitched and Bound 2006

Held at the Fremantle Arts Centre, 1 Finnerty Street, Fremantle, Western Australia.
29 July to 3 September 2006

The sixth in a series of juried exhibitions presented by the West Australian Quilters’ Association, stitched and bound 2006, displayed an exciting collection of uniquely fascinating and original contemporary quilts by Western Australian makers. On view in the Main Gallery, this diverse collection included works that touched on personal themes, explored the concept of a quilt, and took traditional techniques and materials in non-traditional directions.

Timelines, presented in celebration of the West Australian Quilters’ Association’s 30th anniversary, offered a glimpse at the personal story of Marjorie Coleman, an acclaimed pioneer of Australian contemporary quiltmaking whose path is closely intertwined with the association. Timelines was on view in the Hall Gallery.

Exhibiting artists shared the diverse sources of inspiration and working methods behind their work in floor talks held over two days in August.
