Have you experienced Fraser Smith?

I happened across Fraser Smith's website during winter break and have instantly fallen in love with his quilts.  You see these aren't just any quilts, they are wooden sculptures of quilts.  The details and the "quilting" are so stunning you really believe it is a textile rather than wood.  He has many other sculpture on his site of various items.  Check him out.   Fraser Smith
