Signs

Hmm, well, flickr's "blog this" feature doesn't seem to be working today!! So let's try this manually.



Made by John Flynn. From the 2004 Dallas Quilt Celebration.

I guess the Dallas quilt show is coming up soon, actually. Anybody going?

The last breath of autumn

After Thanksgiving, we're not going to be in the mood for autumn-y quilts so much (even if it's still technically autumn for another month), so here's a sampling.



"Autumn Orchard" (above) made by Kathie Briggs; from the exhibit "Small Wonders VIII" at IQF 2006.




"Fall Into Spring" (above) made by Cheryl See of Virginia; winner of first prize in the category Innovative Applique, Small in the judged show at IQF 2007.




"New England Stream" (above) made by Linda Creagh. From the 2004 Dallas Quilt Celebration.



"Country Roads" (above) made by Nancy Prince; from the Faculty Showcase at IQF 2006.


And possibly my very favorite:


"Autumn" (above) made by Noriko Endo of Chiba, Japan; entered in the judged show (category: Art-Naturescapes) at IQF 2007.

How Big Is Your Can?

I have to add this one. It's great.

(Not that I expect to be dieting in Michigan or anything.)

Radiance

Made by Linda Ramundo.

This is a gorgeous lone star. It's quilted either with metallic thread or with Sliver, I'm not sure which.

(Ugh. I have quilted with both. Neither was easy to work with, but the metallic thread was the worst. Total nightmare.)

Love Apple Star with a French Twist

A really pretty quilt. I will have to go dig out the maker's name tomorrow, if I have time. It's from the 2004 Dallas Quilt Celebration.

Made by Ruth Douglas
