When I say I quilt, it is very common for people to say, "Oh, I just don't have the patience for that!" Now, I don't think it takes patience to quilt. I think it take patience and a lot of skill to do sand sculpture!
When Richard and I were in Hawaii right before Christmas, we admired and enjoyed these sculptures in the Waikiki Sheraton. They were created by Jill Harris and Thomas Koet of Sensational Sculpting. Thomas is the World Champion of Sand Sculpting.
We thought they looked way too much like us! Or is it we looked way too much like them!

did you get to see the wilcox quilts? or the queens quilt? my mom and sister saw those when they were in hawaii and loved them.
ReplyDeletei think there is a certain amount of patience when first learning technique, a lot of younger and probably beginning quilters, don't seem to realize the time it takes to achieve skill, but once there the only patience required is slowing down to determine whats next.
