Past ribbon winners: Folk Art & Tulips

Quilt above made by Margaret Docherty of Durham, U.K.; 3rd place winner in the category Traditional Applique at the 2005 International Quilt Festival. (I am partial to good folk art, so I like this one a lot.)

Sandy Bonsib made this quilt, which surprised me. I took a class from Sandy sometime around 2000, and she was very much into the folk art quilts at the time (this quilt of mine came from that class). You can see some folk-art influences in this (the scrappy look, lots of plaids) but this is not really what I'd call a folk-art quilt. Not at all.

Here is the whole thing:


(This seems to be Sandy's most recent book - I'm guessing that this might be a quilt from that book. Or it may just be a pattern and not from a book at all.)
