This quilt won best use of color.

The piecing in the middle of this quilt is teeny tiny.
For a circle bed.


This another log cabin quilt




I never did figure out how they did this. Some of it is folded so it has a 3D effect.




Amazing





This women had been on a mission to Russia. This was a queen size quilt.




Just for fun.




These blocks were machine embroidered. Very beautiful.


I have one more post to make. I have enjoyed sharing these pictures with you.

Thanks for the photos. I love going to quilt shows (although Martha has lost her enthusiasm for them and quilting in general). I particularly like the one extreme of quilted "pictures" and the other extreme of single color or very little piecing and lots of decorative quilting.
The Best of Show at the Utah County Fair was a "picture" quilt with a Christmas theme, wise men, nativity, and something I interpreted as Samuel the Lamanite, but hey this is Utah County. Any way, it was in fact a beautiful, complex quilt and I wish I had had a camera. There was also a queen-size quilting-only entry that had some absolutely gorgeous patterns in it.

Pumpkin Adventure

We were lucky enough to go on a pumpkin adventure with BB.  She did enjoy it. I know, her face says different. She loved her little pumpkin and carried it everywhere.

This one was a little bit of a puzzle, but she went down several times.  Pumpkin pie.... Pumpkin cookies.... Pumpkin muffins.....

(turn him over) When the mommy ghost came home, this is what she found She called the doctor and who put them on a diet of milk, ice cream and cottage cheese, which turns them back to their ghostly color.

I made this table runner for one of my quilting groups and I love it. Should have made it sooner. Here is my Christmas Tree skirt. To be honest, the points don't match, but I am making it for my mother, who really can't see well enough to know, so que sera, sera. The other problem with this is that I need to quilt it again. It is just not right. I haven't decided exactly what to do, but I imagine, I will fix it.
