Wyndham Fabric Challenge….

If you have followed my blog, you will know that I entered my quilt into the QuiltCon Wyndham Fabric Challenge….

“Catching A Dream”

Sadly, it was NOT accepted into the challenge!!

BUT, let’s spend a few days looking at the quilts that were.

To remind you, the rules stated that we had to use at least three of these six fabrics….

This quilt won the first prize ribbon……

“Overprint” by Betsy Vinegrad

She did an amazing job of creating transparency among the fabrics. I NEVER even saw that as an option!!

And the quilting is amazing as well!!

Second prize went to…..

“Blended” by Fran Gulick

The perfection in this quilt is astounding!!

Third place…..

“Local Density 01” by Charles Cameron

Just look at all of the improv piecing!!

So, those were the winners. Here are a few of my favorites….

“Well, Sheet” by Matthew Friesz

This quilter is known as @TheQuiltyArchitect. He always brings his architecture training into his quilts and I haven’t seen one that I don’t like!!

This next quilt…..

“Murmuration” by Tamara Stunnell

I loved her inspiration…..

I was inspired by a cake decoration that created the effect of triangles moving in waves as the cake was spun. The challenge was to produce that same movement on a flat surface.

She CERTAINLY accomplished her desire!!

This next AMAZING quilt is made up of 1/8th inch strips…..yes….you read that right!!

“Maybe?” by Isabelle Selak

When she was contemplating the quilt, she thought about what would deem it as a success? The answer was “if she LEARNED something”.

I so love and appreciate that attitude!!

Probably my favorite quilt in this exhibit was…..

“Ocean Dance 2” by Linda Steele

There are SO many fun details in the quilt, from this sea creature…..

….to the wonderful quilting designs used…..

Come back tomorrow and we will spend some time with these fabrics.
