It's here!

14 years ago

My raffle win from Jennifer's guild is here! You cannot possibly imagine how fabulous it is. The colors couldn't be more perfect for my house if I sent them pictures to plan it with. The batiks are all beautiful, the blocks are outstanding and the quilting is to die for. Look forward to seeing it at the retreat in October.

    Bev,

    You have NO idea how I wish that was MY quilt!! LOL It is absolutely gorgeous when seen in person!

    My good friend handled the planning/orchestration of this quilt and made the center medallion as a jumping off point. I made the four compass blocks in the corners as my contribution to balance the center.

    I'm glad it made it to you safe and sound!

    The colors are beautiful - can't wait to see it in person!

    That is one quilt I could sit and stare at for hours!
    A lot of work went into the construction, and you are truly blessed!

    Is there any chance you could take a photo of the picture on the wall above your bed?
    Is is a painting?

    I'll try to get a better photo of the picture. It is actually a puzzle I took to the retreat a couple of years ago. We started putting it together there, and DH and I finished it at home. It was a pain because it is sort of blurry and the colors all blend. But DH loved it when it was done, so we framed it and put it over the bed.

    I keep coming back to look at this quilt. The colors are so striking and the cool colored sashing really sets them off nicely.

    Now I know that when I do my black/white quilt I'm going to do a large mariners compass in the center!
