Miami Valley Art Quilt Network (MVAQN) is a quilt guild that Ronnie belongs to and they have just completed a special project known as "Dayton Landmarks" (or some days "damn Dayton Landmarks").
It all started with an idea. Take pictures of Dayton landmarks, divide the pictures up into equal slices, distribute the slices to different quilters, have the quilters interpret those slices in their own unique style independent of each other, bring the slices back together to form a quilt of sorts that represents the original picture.
Photos were submitted, images were chosen, printed, sliced, distributed, slices were made, and the quilting began, and finally the slices found each other and an amazing exhibit has been mounted.
I am pleased to announce that six "Slice Quilts" based on Ronnie's photographs of Dayton landmarks are now hanging in a special exhibit at the Schuster Center in downtown Dayton. They will be there until June 24 so make plans to go see them. (parking info)
These "Slice Quilts" are amazing pieces of ART and worth the trip to see them. If you can't make it to the Schuster before the exhibit comes down (June 24th) not to worry, they will be traveling to different venues and I'll be sure to keep you informed. You can thank me later.
Love,
Buddy
