Blogger's Quilt Festival

Garden Party

Hello and Welcome to my blog. This is my entry into the Blogger's Quilt Festival for 2011. It is called Garden Party from Material Obsession- here in Australia. I made it to show at my local groups' exhibition recently. The quilt was lots of fun to make - beginning with the background sky moving down through to the earth. After piecing the background I made up lots of dresdens using a wedge ruler. I completed the quilt first - bound and quilted it in an all over design on our longarm machine. Then I appliqued the dresden flowers. Back onto the longarm to custom quilt all the petals. I love the bright happy feel of this quilt and hope you enjoy seeing it. Thank you to Amy for hosting this event. I think this is my 3rd time entering. It is fantastic to be able to see so many wonderful, creative works.
