Bloggers' Quilt Festival

It's "Bloggers' Quilt Festival" time again. Lots of quilts to see and enjoy! Visit Amy's Creative Side and be inspired. Thank you, Amy, for offering us so much inspiration in just one place.


Amy's Creative Side

And here is my entry - my latest shadow trapunto quilt.


I combined in this quilt the things I love most:

 - color  and circular design; these are raw edge Kona cotton hexagons glued on a background;


 - trapunto design, made out of organza and batting;

Two tops = one quilt, here is a detail:


 - Color and contrast  -


It was an adventure to make it and I learned a few lessons. The most important - "the patience".
More pictures and information about how I made it -  here.

Enjoy the festival's quilts!
