The New Quilt 2024 Preview: Ruth de Vos

Today we preview A New Thing, a botanical artwork by Ruth de Vos, one of juror-judges on The New Quilt 2024 selection panel. Ruth is an award winning artist, a quilt-pattern designer, and a published picture book illustrator. She loves to focus on the beauty of ordinary every day things, including the flora that forms her local streetscape. "There is so much beauty in the sturdy, slender gum leaves, and the verdant clusters of fibrous eucalyptus blossoms bursting from their wooden shells."
