Surrounded by talent



After viewing my green challenge quilt, Patti asked if some people did more traditional things, or did they all do more like "art quilts". My quilt was a pattern from Maple Island Quilts called Snibbles, I had to adjust it to size it down. Others in the group did do more traditional things, one did a chevron, another Pinwheels. There are some very talented and creative gals in my guild. I am including pictures of their work to show you what can be done with the same group of fabrics. Remember, we had a 6" square of each fabric. Some used most of each piece, some less.

Now you know the real reason I am part of the guild, and now the blog. All these ladies have more than talent, they have a lot that I can learn, and are willing to share their knowledge.

WOW, it is hard to believe how different each of these look with the same fabric. Very talented bunch!

Welcome!

Neat idea for a challenge! It'd be hard to pick a block for that challenge. :)

Welcome to the Stash Ring. What a fun challenge your group did--I love to see how quilter's can all take the same fabric and come up with something unique.
