Mountain Heritage Challenge – CELEBRATION

On my design wall …

I’m taking on another challenge to use specific fabric to make a quilt that depicts CELEBRATION. I decided to use a technique by Marilyn Doheney that I learned in a class that I took HERE.

First I sewed together strips of the challenge fabric to make a strata.

Then, using Marilyn’s ruler, I cut the strips into wedges.

I took those wedges and sewed some of them together making a ‘fan’ that I’m hoping will look like fireworks.

Another strata and more wedges produced more design possibilities.

And Amy’s cat Clyde just happened to walk by at the most opportune time!

Square in a Square Pinapple

Yaaaaay! I met my goal of cutting out a small quilt using a color pallette suggested by Vicki and Judy. I'm also using this quilt as a demo for our Possum Town Quilters this Saturday. Here you can see my fabric and 2 of the finished square in a square pineapple blocks I'll be demonstrating.

A Gospel Song

I have continued working on my PTQ challenge quilt this past week.  Can you guess the gospel song I’m trying to depict?

...and it's not "There is a Green Hill Far Away" ... so far away that you can't see it!!!
