This quilt was made for a Fibervision exhibit at the Big Sky Cafe in San Luis Obispo. The theme that we chose was Blue, but as usual, I had a hard time sticking to the rules. The blues were too cool; it needed some spark, so I added a bit of pink and purple to warm it up.
This is a close-up of the middle section. The pink semi-circle is Angelina fibers. The blue vertical strips on the right have been sewn together with the raw edges exposed.
Hopefully, you can see some of the hand stitching in the vertical Tye-dyed section and in the diagonal lines in the middle. The top left section has a grid of pintucks.
Here you can see the beading in the smaller machine appliqued circles. This line of beading continues throughout the whole spiral.

Absolutely gorgeous! Congratulations on the blue ribbon too!
It's nice seeing the closeups.
Judy, this is probably my most favorite quilt that you've done so far... I just LOVE IT! Kudos to you on your win, and especially to Ranell on winning Best of Show... her four "Wild Women" were terrific!
