A quick note on the ugly fabric challenge of last June…Kathleen gave us each a piece of this fabric, (well…not each of us, because a few people found the fabric a little overwhelming…) with the challenge that we needed to bring back a finished quilt in December.
So yesterday we met at our house for the reveal. First they trooped up to check out the re-done sewing room
and when we came back downstairs I noticed Kate had done some “shopping”
but on to the reveal…Deanna made a nice applique piece
Kathleen used hexagons…
I combined the challenge fabric with some Japanese ikata cloth
But Lynda’s was the winner to my eye…the back…
and the front…
Ethelwyne was still on vacation so we’ll have to wait for hers. And then on to show and tell…an adorable tiny needlecase…
Berneice’s Dr. Suess quilt…
Kathleen’s Sue Spargo piece…
and Kathleen’s friend Diane was visiting with her nice quilt done all with Lecien fabric from Japan…
and the last luncheon was served on the old table..(.the new one comes tomorrow!!!)
See you quilters in January!
I like the ugly fabric. I think it’s cheery and very playful! The quilts are all wonderful, but the quilt that brought the out loud ” wow” was the Dr. Seuss quilt. I’m still under its spell… The appliqué is so beautiful , I love applique on quilts, just don’t like doing it. Merry Christmas! 🙂
wonderful. I thought your quilt won the challenge! love that Dr S quilt too.
Nothing can stay ugly forever
You ladies are so creative! Love them all…
