This paper-pieced quilt won me a 3rd place ribbon in a local quilt show. The pattern is from Colleen Granger's book "Circle Quilts".

Nita, this is so not my style of quilt, but WOW you did a terrific job with colors and placement. And the name is perfect! The circular movement of your perfect quilting shows off the swirling winds of a tornado beautifully. Congratulations on the prize and now, go for the next one!

Thanks for your generous compliment. There was a time (in the not-too-distant past) when I, too, would have said this was "not my style of quilt". But then I decided to break out of my comfort zone and delve into wall art quilts. The rest is history, LOL. I love being challenged and this quilt was exactly that ... a challenge to conquer. The excitement of having a prize winning ribbon was attached to one of my quilts motivates me to "go for the next one"

Have the book and it's still on "That bucket ;ost"...hummm...Nita do you have one of those?

Teen 05-11-2018 05:16 PM

This is very cool....I got dizzy staring at it so no doubt I would have gotten motion sickness sewing it.:D Well deserved ribbon, girl!
