For the 2010 Festival of Quilts Jane Dunnewold developed a body of work that was designed around repurposed fabrics, linens, tablecloths, and clothing that represents, to her, the intimate encounters we have in our lives. She utilised several dyeing and printing techniques, always mindful of the relationship between the design element and the theme of her work.

I appreciate how our grandmothers affect our visual memories and our fiber work. It's reassuring to see that dialogue continue in our new century from the past which taught us to value fiber. Cloth may have been the first sensation after our birth. Like poetry, it is our last.
