Here is my 2011 submission to Amy's Quilt festival. I have no idea how she got started doing this but it is such a fantastic idea. If you want to see a quilt show and cannot make it Houston then you must go to Amy's and look at all the lovely quilts.
I finished this quilt earlier this year and love it as much as I did then. I adore anything patriotic and this quilt took center stage all summer long at my house. It is a pattern designed by PieceOCake.
My friend Kathy McCarty (from Ohio) did the machine quilting.
I hope you enjoy seeing it again.
Lori, I love and so enjoyed seeing it. Looks great. I am going to have to get that pattern. I just love yours.
ReplyDeletetremendous work in this quilt...lovely. The quilt is really beautiful and so is the quilting
ReplyDeleteYour friend did wonderful quilting on this. You can be proud to hang your quilt and a good submission for the quilt show.
ReplyDeleteLori, the quilt is lovely - every time I look at it, I see some little detail I didn't see the first time - I think that makes it a work of "art"!!
