Houston Quilt Festival 2013, Part 1

The Houston International Quilt Festival, 2013, was once again an almost overwhelming experience. I want to share some of my favorite art quilts, and have spent the last week going through my pictures ... cropping, straightening, correcting lighting and color (as much as possible), and making sure I had the artists' names attached to the images.  Here is the first group, alphabetically by title.  Enjoy!
