Greetings! I'm STILL trying to sort out photos from the Houston Quilt Festival. I have been looking forward to posting photos of the amazing quilted yurt, submitted by Linzi Upton, of Aberdeenshire, United Kingdom. As you can imagine, this was a very unusual and fun installation in the Tactile Architecture exhibit at festival. Check it out:

To see some images of another textile yurt, this one built by my oldest daughter follow the
links!
I'm still wondering how I missed the Yurt! I think I always stopped at the SAQA and Rituals exhibits and got "stuck" so I never made it any further. The yurt is really beautiful! I'm glad I am getting to visit it through your photos and Linzi's post!
