There are several coffee table sized books with excellent photos done during the first exhibition in Houston. It's worth checking any lending library you have access to. I realize in the UK it's more of a long shot but worth a try.
It's from those books I learned I like making utility quilts. Nice looking if possible but intended for daily use. One or two of those ladies made quilt tops as time allowed and kept them in a cupboard until another quilt was needed. She said something along the lines of it was like having gold stashed away. It made me realize that quilts have two finished stages, the top and the complete quilt.
Really I learned a great deal about quilting and my quilt esthetic from these quilts.
PS. If you like modern quilts you'll love these.
