This is so beautiful. There would be no fear of quilt police here, LynnVT! Is it in a competition?

TMK 06-25-2013 03:46 AM

I think it is beautiful. Tell the quilt police to get lost. If you love it, then that is what matters.

That is one very pretty quilt and I love the dragonflies. Good luck at the Billings Farm Exhibit. I'm sure it will be a winner.

Great job! I think it's very pretty, even though I haven't heard of this pattern.

msrosecooks 06-25-2013 10:54 AM

LYNNVT, this design is so beautiful and your color choices are too. I have been looking high and low for a nice quilting pattern incorporating dragonflies . Is it possible to get this one? I would be glad to pay for it.

jeanharville 06-25-2013 04:05 PM

So many things to like about your quilt: The soft faded red, white, and blue; your doodle quilting looks perfect for this quilt and the dragonfly applique is the winning touch. Thanks for sharing with us. I know you will enjoy seeing it on your bed.

Iraxy 06-25-2013 05:26 PM

I totally agree - a beauty of a quilt!

Thank you all for positive comments. I don't think I'd put it into a serious competition like VQF as there are a lot of flaws up close. My quilting is irregular and points are cut off on some of the triangle border bits. Billings is an exhibition open to residents of Windsor County VT, and though the jurors each choose a favorite, as does the curator, it's not for competition and prizes. I like that there are usually quilters at all levels represented, so I don't feel pressure for perfection. Next year I will put it into our guild show, Bennington Quiltfest, as I am doing with last year's Billings entry, Montana Flutter. I usually enter small quilts, so I decided to make a bed quilt this year. There are "viewers' choice" awards, and I admit that would be lovely to win. But there are usually a few extraordinarily good quilters represented, or those who use professional quilters. My avatar shows what happened when my friend and I spread it out on her grass for a shade picture. Her cat immediately jumped on it for inspection. So cute! LOL

Lovely! You did a super job on the dragon flies and I like the colors as well.

I love it. Dragonflies are my favorite things. Look up the Legend of the Dragonfly online, you will love the story

I like the quilt and love all the dragonflies.
