With just a few weeks to spare before the deadline of my local quilt guild's (Courthouse Quilters) challenge, I managed to put together an entry that ultimately won 2nd place! The challenge rules stipulated that the quilt contain "10" of something- anything to celebrate the guild's 10th show at the Prallsville Mills coming up this October 5-7. It also needed to have bits of red and tan to represent the mills.
My inspiration was the large round millstone I took a picture of at our last show in 2010. Also having recently purchased Kaleidoscope Kreator 3 software, I created round, 8-sectioned kaleidoscopes form various images I also took at the 2010 show. Some kaleidoscopes were much more obvious than others - but that was the fun part - watching the guild members try to guess what images/scenes could have possibly made the various kaleidoscopes.
I will post the original images on my website. Can you guess which ones correspond to which kaleidoscopes?
Join us at the10th Quilts at the Mill Quilt Show in Stockton, NJ October 5-7, 2012! There will be a special exhibit of all of the challenge quilts as well as many more beautiful quilts to gaze at, chances to win our member-made raffle quilt or mini quilts, handmade items to purchase at our boutique and plenty of vendors to shop at!
Please go towww.courthousequilters.comfor more information on the show! See you there!

If you'd like to see Wild Daisy up close and personal - it will be on display March 1-4, 2012 at the Mancuso Quilt Fest of New Jersey VIII in Somerset NJ.

Did you get your copy of the Winter 2012 NQA Quilting Quarterly? You'll find my directions on how to finish a quilt - the QUILTapestry way! Essentially it is a no-binding technique that also incorporates a rod pocket - great for wall quilts! You'll also find directions for my Ribbon Star QUILTapestry where you can try it out!
I developed the technique when I was making my Scandinavian series quilts. I wanted the quilts to finish with a neat edge, but I didn't want the visual effect that a binding would add. Pictures of all three quilts are on page 9 along with a picture of me wearing my Estonian national costume! The technique is also great for keeping neat the backs wall quilts with lots of embellishment or the not so perfect bobbin stitches of a novice machine quilter!
If you aren't a member of NQA and don't receieve the magazine, check out my website to see the quilts and a few more! Patterns for the Scandinavian series quilts are available through my website or at www.QuiltWoman.com.
Happy Quilting!
