This is my first post. Just trying things out. I've attached a photo of "Flower Power" my latest finished quilt. I'm sending it to the Treasures of Tomorrow quilt show in Marshfield, WI. Dates of show: October 29 and 30. Their website is: http://www.piecemakers.org/. It's always a great show. I'm also preparing to enter it into the April, 2011 AQS show in Paducah, KY. It's early; deadline for entries is the first week in January, but I might as well get my entry in now!
I love this quilt. I designed all the applique motifs and used the traditional Flower Basket block to set them. I was inspired by great colorful, retro fabrics and all things retro. It sure was fun to make. I used my usual raw edge, machine applique technique. Cheri Trexler of Arbor Vitae. WI did the machine quilting. By the way, this quilt was shown at 2 other shows so far: the NQA show in Columbus, OH in June (winning Honorable Mention) and the Ladies of the Lake show in Minocqua, WI in August (First place award).
I'm impressed! You really are talented!
