Linda took over 100 photos from her New Orleans visit to speak to members of the Gulf States Quilting Association. Here’s just a few of the photos from Ilaine’s studio.
Enjoy!
Linda and the magnificent Ilaine Hartman
Beautiful costumes, and lots of Swarovski Crystals
Some of the gold shoes for those who appear annually in the Mardi Gras parade (there's LOTS more shoes!). Ilaine stores them all year long.
Queen of Mardi Gras? Hardly -- it's just Linda.
This is the cape that Rex, the King, will wear.
Get this -- rolling balls sewn into the underside of Rex's cape so that it rolls smoothlessly behind him in the parade!
