From a file of old photos not very often visited, here’s a photo of a work I haven’t seen or thought of in some years.\u00a0 I’m in the middle of a project that is bring a few gems to the surface, and I’ll show another soon including one from the ‘OMG What Was I Thinking? group. This one I always loved – typical of the Ancient Expressions series, exploring landscape’s relationship to the peoples who lived in\/on it and some of the marks they left behind.<\/p>\n

Since I began making quilts in 1987, I have always had each photographed with the best technology at the time; I’ve always kept a list of title, date completed, dimensions; kept an index file card for each listing exhibitions it was seen in, where it sold or two whom it sold.\u00a0 I kept my slides in albums of slide sheets, and kept catalogues or other paper stuff in a filing cabinet.\u00a0 Time’s moved on and all this is now woefully old tech – and in my case, disorganised, but it’s complicated, and partly because I never expected how long I’d living in this country, so never brought over stuff I would have if we’d actually moved house. Plus I haven’t spent any quality time with my records in Perth for some years.\u00a0 I’m wondering whether it matters, really, but just in case someone wants to curate a grand retrospective \ud83d\ude42\u00a0 I’m compiling a\u00a0new document that combines basic info plus image(s) of each work.<\/span><\/em>\u00a0 I’d really forgotten about several of them – a couple I am sure I have physically lost, some older works are here and others never made the journey, but I can’t be 100% sure they’re still rolled up in dust covers on top of the bookshelf in Perth.<\/p>\n
