My Blogger First

Okay so for the past couple of days blogger has been out and now I know the frustration other people have been talking about! But now it is back and I can tell you about Amy's Creative Space Spring Quilt Festival. It really is fun so check it out when you have some time to sit and see some very awesome quilts.

This is the quilt I am entering called "Sunshine Flower", for no other reason than I just like it and I love the colors. It is not large about 18 x 24. One of the best things about this quilt is that I did not labor over what to put where. I tried to work more intuitively and just enjoy the process. I did stress a little when it came to the machine quilting because I didn't want to ruin it!!! I decided to just quilt it the way it might look in nature, simple  and not complicated, mostly straight lines and a few curves. The center dots were made with a paper punch my Martha Stewart. MUCH easier than trying to cut them all out by hand and I wanted them very round. It is all hand dyed fabric which is what give the petals that very realistic look. This is completely fused which added to the fun and relatively fast completion. Try it!
I hope you all enjoy this quilt.
