LIKE Quilting

My son is a 3rd year architecture student. It's a shame that they give the students so much work and so little time to complete it - because he now has no time to enjoy what he creates. I am struck how similar quilting is to architecture creations.

If he still enjoyed what he created, I would make a quilt like this.  After two dimensional creations like the black and white - they moved to abstract 3 dimensions
And then began constructing intricate models of buildings.
In artistic angst, he saved the dulled exacto blades from cutting so much balsa and cardboard and hung this sculpture above our fireplace.



Modern art.
I think
