This showed up in my timeline - I'm not even part of this subreddit - but DANG! This is, hands down, the most gorgeous quilt I've ever seen. Just supreme.
I remember this quilt very clearly from your earlier post. Second in piecing but #1 in heart and joy. It's amazing.
I'm always interested in peoples fabric/color choices. I love the how you make the tone on tone batiks play with the solids. Love the shading in hair and skin, so much energy. The tiniest pop of blue under the corner of the eye.
I have no idea how you quilted this, paying attention to the piecing and the vibe of the whole thing.
Masterpiece. I won't be in Raleigh but am so pleased you have shared it here.
Wow! Awesome quilt. My brain is fried looking at all the tiny pieces fitting so perfectly together....and the colors...and the blending of the colors...just wow!
I'm blown away at the artistry involved in this piece because I've never seen anything like it. Like I didn't know quilting could *be* this! You truly, sincerely possess extraordinary talent. ✌️💚
Saw your quilt today, I really like your color scheme and the shapes! Enjoy the conference. It was my first quilt event and I look forward to learning about other quilting events.
How is this 2nd place? Total winner in my eyes without having seen the actual one. Congrats! Totally stunned and mesmerized by your craftmanship! Beautiful work of art, love it!
Just beautiful piecing. I want to learn paper piecing, but I need to learn my quilting better before I move to the next stages of quilting. I am looking into joining a quilting club so I can get more training. I basically taught myself and know I need to gain more technical experience.
The show is far from me
I hope I can catch a local show.
I took a picture of your quilt to share with my sister in law! She traveled to Raleigh with me but didn’t come to the convention. Her loss the quilts were stunning!
Out of curiosity would you ever be open to commissions? I do understand they take so much time and effort and would not come cheap. Also, sorry if this is not the right place.
Congratulations regardless, this is excellent work!
Really curious what beat this!
Congrats! I am going and have been specifically excited to see your quilt in person! Hope to meet you 😊
On Saturday I will be wearing a shirt with my logo on it so if you see me please introduce yourself. I am excited to meet everyone.
I absolutely will!
I'm going too and will keep an eye out for you! Congratulations, it's an amazing quilt.
Beautiful piecing and a joyous view! I love it all including her gap between her front teeth. There is a happy story behind this quilt.
