Your quilt is stunning!! I can see why it was chosen. Wish I could come to the Quilt Show. I was born in Des Moines and raised in Urbandale. Long time since I have come home. Good luck in the show, please keep us posted on results.

Oh my, that's beautiful!! I'm headed to the show on Friday. I'll be watching for it.

Love your use of of the various texture techniques! that ruched ( not sure I spelled correctly) border is perfection for this quilt. Congrats on being excepted, it really is something to be proud of. Wish I could see it in person, but would have a really hard time keeping my hands off. I would just want to touch all that texture.

DebbE 09-23-2012 06:00 AM

Your quilt is one of the most beautiful I've ever seen. I especially love that you've put all the different techniques into the quilt, and with the embroidery and color selections it all just comes together into a magnificent quilt. You should be very proud!

DebbE 09-23-2012 06:03 AM

Do you have a picture of the back, too? I'd LOVE to see the back as well!

Great use of many techniques. Did you get some ideas from Rami Kim?

MamaBear61 09-23-2012 10:43 AM

That is beautiful. It desires to be in a "big" show. Good Luck

maryb119 09-23-2012 11:56 AM

Thank you all for the kind words. I just started cutting and sewing what ever can to mind and putting it together. There is no pattern and I did not draw it on graph paper first. I am still amazed that my quilt was selected for the show. I am a former bridal seamstress before I turned to quilting so some of the techniques are from that but some are heirloom techniques too. I just put it together the way I thought it looked the best. Just getting into the show is an honor for me. All I want is for my quilt to look like it should be there. I am glad some of you will get to see it in person. I hope you like it. Thanks again!

Lorraine Simon 09-23-2012 01:29 PM
