Perhaps no one is as surprised at David Taylor\u2019s quilt art fame than David himself. His plan was to become an award-winning graphic artist, but a recommendation from a good friend and a lifelong love of fabric took him in a whole new direction.<\/p>\n
David\u2019s unique techniques in constructing his quilts are equally surprising. It\u2019s probably safe to say not many quilters rely upon the \u2018artistic\u2019 strategies of building jigsaw puzzles and Legos. But when you read David\u2019s rationale, it will make perfect sense. <\/p>\n
David\u2019s art quilts are as colorful and inviting as his personal sense of style and humour. His stories of constructing his own apparel as a young man are both touching and funny. And he offers a detailed look into his remarkable construction process.<\/p>\n
David Taylor is a two-time recipient of the Master Award for Contemporary Quilting from the International Quilt Association (2006, 2014), the Brother Wall Machine Workmanship Award from the American Quilters Society (Paducah Quilt Week, 2008), and a two-time Best of Show winner at the IQA\u2019s Spring Festival in Chicago (2007, 2008). His works hang in numerous private collections.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
