Several people have asked me to show which quilt won a judge's choice at the Denver National Quilt Festival. I am pleased to show it to you. It's final name is "Peeper." Sometimes my quilts have a few name changes before they are satisfied. Multiple multiple layers of fabric and tons of thread pose a challenge to my Innova longarm, but she came through.My latest piece is actually more traditional. It's a wedding ring design with the addition of some irises I designed from the plentiful supply outside my door ( a yard full of 150 varieties, thanks to my friend Mary). Thus, "Something Old, Something New"
Now if life will quit getting in the way, I have some stained glass quilts to make, and some origami journals.
Thank you to everyone who made such nice comments on this blog. I really do appreciate them, and like everything else, will reply to you all after June 10 show opening!
Meanwhile, the Lighthouse challenge quilts are up for viewing at Back Porch Fabrics in Pacific Grove, CA, the latest CFA show is still on view at the Bakersfield (CA) Art Museum, another CFA show will be opening July 2 ath the Eureka (CA)Art Museum, I think the Yeiser show which has my Lovebirds, is still up, Sacred Threads will be in DC this summer ( with "Joy; Lovebirds 3), and "Sunset Roost" will appear both at the Eureka art museum and then travel to Houston and beyond with SAQA's Sense of Adventure.
But don't forget! Avenue 9. June 10. please come.
