Description of Presentation
Welcome Home
“Welcome Home,” an exploration of my thought process and construction techniques in creating the ‘porch swing quilt’ (as to which it is often referred). I’m attaching an image of the finished quilt that is now in the permanent collection of the Rocky Mountain Quilt Museum.
About David Taylor
David M. Taylor currently lives in Fort Collins, Colorado. His obsession with fabric began at an early age, salvaging tiny scraps from his mother’s sewing area trash bin. He started creating on her sewing machine by age 10. After college, he began a 25-year career in graphic design. In 2009 he left his job at an advertising agency, started teaching appliqué and quilting, and never looked back. His first quilt design was in 1999, collaborating on a fundraiser project for Strings Music Festival in Steamboat Springs, CO, with friend Madeleine Vail. Madeleine encouraged him to keep after it. His teaching adventures have taken him around the globe and his quilted artworks hang in numerous private collections.
David M. 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’s Spring Festival in Chicago (2007, 2008).
