This was the solution for the question posted for Too Tacky for Quilt Show. I am sending the guild descriptions of both finished quilts and tops for them to choose from. I will also be vending and doing demos so some of the tops may be displayed with the demos. Oh forgot these are for a special exhibit. I am not a guild member.

Wow! How big is the bear?! He looks 3D! That is amazing!! The duckies are really cute too.

Good luck at the show and report back

He's about 36" square and made from a wood carving pattern from L. Irish and the ducks are a quilt pattern from Rose Hahn.

The problem was that a number of them are not finished quilts, just the tops mounted onto felt for hanging. I do demos and vend at the show as well and wanted to make sure they wanted some that are tops. Therefore they chose which ones they want for the special exhibit. The bear is made from a wood carving pattern by L. Irish. I love the detail in her drawings.

You are a very versatile quilter!!!! And very accomplished. I like the girl hanging her quilt and the penguins.

Yes it's a local guild show April 2nd and 3rd. The demos are always popular. This time I am working on my guild challenge, using orange fabrics.

They are not all quilted which created my question. I just have to push the envelope!

Prettiptibbs 03-18-2011 04:57 PM

Me, too! My other pick is the little girl's shadow. Are there patterns for these?

debcavan 03-18-2011 05:23 PM

Oh my heavens, what awesome quilts. My mouth is still dropped to the floor.

The Amish lady is from Pine Meadows, she was hanging regular laundry, I just substituted the quilt. And enlarged it although the label is the size given in the pattern with a miniature quilt! The little girl's shadow is out of print but you might be able to find it on EBay. It was called Afternoon Stroll.

Tweety2911 03-18-2011 05:51 PM

I love the versatility of your work. Very creative, beautiful works of art!

nana katie 03-18-2011 07:31 PM

I LOVE them all.

BETTY62 03-18-2011 08:49 PM

I love all of the quilts. They are awesome. However, the duckies and the moose are my favorite.

timepasser 03-18-2011 09:59 PM

MrsM 03-19-2011 12:47 AM

Wow those are great. Love the one with the woman hanging out her quilt.

quilterella 03-19-2011 01:57 AM

W*O*W* what an absolutely stunning collection. I love the horses, the clothsline one and the siloutte on. OH wait...I love them all. What a stunning display of patience. Great work.

TracyRenea 03-19-2011 02:15 AM

Those ducks just made me laugh. I love them!

Yooper32 03-19-2011 03:06 AM

Spectacular quilts, or quilt tops. My favorite is the sillhouette, it is so different and next would be the Amish woman hanging laundry, but your best work is in your critter quilts, they are just unbelievably beautiful.

Babs194068 03-19-2011 03:15 AM

Awesome job on all of them

sumcoop 03-19-2011 03:23 AM
