I don’t know about you, but I adore quilts that feature flowers so “In Full Bloom” is an exhibit that I wait for each year.
The flowers in this first quilt are wonderful…..
…but work well against this background…..
I THINK that this background is a piece of fabric and not pieced but it is SO effective!!
I plan my flower beds to be a cacophony of colors and types of flowers, and this quilt reminds me greatly of that……
The applique was perfect and the quilting added a great touch to the quilt…..
This sunflower quilt is another example of turning a panel into a Kaleidoscope quilt……
This is the panel that was used…..
I talked about this technique in a previous post….
We have spent a lot of time in tropical areas where bananas are grown so this quilt resonated….
I appreciate the piecing in this quilt!!
This final quilt was simple in design but was extremely effective…..
What a fun way to showcase floral fabrics!!
Okay….we are working our way through the categories and exhibits from the International Quilt Festival. Tomorrow we will look at some “traditional with a twist” quilts!!
