All interested people between the ages of nine (or third grade) and 19 years and their parents are I at's ookin ? I Quilt-making an a rt form "I'm interested in so many things, and there's so much I want to do," says Enid Neilan. "I wish I could turn time back about 15 years. "I wouldn't want to live anything over again," she states. "I'd want to go right on from where I am now." Enid Neilan is 79 years of age, but her appearance and her actions deny the truth. She is noted for her outstanding handmade quilts and for her unique method of quilting with yarn. She sometimes combines quilting and tying, but always outlines the pattem in a complimentary color to enhance the artistry of her work. "I've made close to 50 quilts,' she reckons, "and a few of the designs were original. I once made to order a quilt whose motif was taken from an unusual and highly prized ring. My butterfly pattern is an original, also." Many of her patterns are the old standards from long ago days. Each quilt bears Enid Neilan's label "Heirloom Quilts' complete with the date completed and a designated number. She keeps a record of her handwork. "I like pastel colors," she confides. "I don't make dark quilts. A careful selection of colors makes all the difference in the finished product. "Quilt-making is an art form," she adds. "Many people just aren't sufficiently careful as to workmanship. If any two seams don't come together as they should the quilt will often bunch up in the center." From October 18 through October 24 Enid Neilan will present a display of her quilts in Shelton Art Gallery. She will be present to discuss her work and to explain her methods. Born in Walla Walla, Mrs. Neilan went to Spokane when she was 13 years old. She moved from there to Yakima and then to Tacoma where she was graduated from high school. "I was employed in the Olympia area for 35 years as an office worker," she reminisces, "and after that I lived in Oregon for several years. I came to Shelton in August." In Walla Walla Enid Neilan assisted a woman who worked in a thrift shop. "She made quilts for low-income families, using recycled materials," Mrs. Neilan says. "I learned the basics from her, and later worked out my own techniques. "My grandmother was a seamstress and a quilt-maker. I still have a quilt that she made in 1904." Mrs. Neilaa's hobbies include many types of art work. She does needlepoint and applique. She paints in watercolors. She makes tapestries, working with crayon on canvas. She plays organ and piano and was once a mezzo soprano. "I could have had a career in radio and TV," she declares. "I had the voice, but never had the money for proper training." She's a carpenter and an amateur electrician. She gardens, and pians to join the Dirt Dabbers Garden Club. 'ly favorite flower is the iris," she says. "I brought a camperful of plants with me when I moved from Oregon.' She owns an extensive library, and reads many books. "I cook just enough to keep alive," she laughs. "I have too many other interests to spend much time in the kitchen. Her diet is restricted. Enid Neilan ordinarily does very little baking and prepares no fancy foods whatsoever; but when her son, Donald Neilan of Seattle, visits with his family Mrs. Neilan breaks a few rules. "My granddaughter likes apple nut cake," she says, "and we all like homemade bread!"
