Impressions from my Solo Exhibit "Die Summe der Teile"

With some delay I'm finally sharing pictures from my Solo Show of last March titled The Sum of The Parts.

It was held at the SGBK Kunstraum, Basel, Switzerland.

The gallery has two rooms joined by a small narrow hallway. In the front room I revisited older work shown before along with a few newer ones made for this show. They are full of color and quite divers.

The little hallway held three quilts. All of them shared here before, the oldest being from 2013!
You can find them here on the Quilt pages. I'm behind with posting Quilts made after 2023 but I plan on adding them.

The back room was dedicated to my quilts made by using mainly discarded shirts. Along with a few older ones shared here before, the room showed my most recent series of five quilts exploring expressive designs by using strong light and dark contrast. Thus the series is named Light & Dark I - V and was finished late 2025. These Quilts all measure about 170 x 120 cm.

Here are some pictures from the gallery rooms. Hope you enjoy them.

Review of our Group Exhibit "Liebe geht durch den Faden"

For those of you who weren't able to visit in person here are a few pictures of how our group exhibit of last September looked.

Our group of seven ladies is named verquiltet and meets regularly since almost ten years in Basel, Switzerland. We meet for Show & Tell, for mutual inspiration, for helping each other, and for sharing our joy and passion for quilting.

We all have our own projects we work on, our own voices and preferences, our own techniques, but in the end we all need a thread to hold everything together. Thus the name for our first group exhibit:

Liebe geht durch den Faden / Love runs through the thread

The location was at openart-galerie.ch

Enjoy!

Thank You to all visitors who made this experience such a rewarding one for our group.

Much love to you!

Group exhibit ahead !

Since almost ten years I've been the host of a quilting group. We meet monthly at my house for Show & Tell and group activities to sparkle our creativity related to quilting.

For the first time we'll be showing some of our individual works all of us together in a group exhibit!
We are excited to see how our personalities will shine through. We have different styles, use different techniques, follow different purposes, but we all have the same love for the thread that keeps everything together. Thus the name of our show: Liebe geht durch den Faden, i.e. Love goes through the thread!

Come by if you can!

What's going on here?

As you may have noticed I had not updated this blog since end 2021.

In case you wondered, I'm fine and still quilting away. I'm just not taking the time for posting here any more. I may return or even start a new blog one day but for now I'm trying to keep up with my website and posting progress on Instagram.

This however is the last quilt I made in 2021. 

Ma forêt de Saint-Maurice 

Saint-Maurice was the Swiss village where I attended a workshop and made this mini quilt.
The workshop was organised by Patchwork du Léman and Marianne Bender-Chevalley was the teacher.

28 x 40 cm

I will keep posting pictures of finished quilts on the page Quilts from 2022 onwards but without further details. 

If you want to stay connected or keep looking for inspiration please follow me on my Instagram page  @ergo_ago_pasqualina where I go deeper and discuss my work.

See you!
