Button Quilts ala Wal-Mart

While I was at the Tucson Quilt Fiesta in January, I was privileged to meet quilt artist Karen G. Fisher.  She is a force to be reckoned with in every way!  She made a series of wall quilts designed to showcase buttons she purchased at her local Wal-Mart.  The buttons are a line distributed by Blumenthal Button Company.  Here are a couple photos of the one she entered in the show.  052

In addition, Karen made some of the awards ribbons.  I sure wish I had won one of these!  Button Up!  Karen did!
