@RJR_38 That entire masterpiece came out of Imi's head!  :o and was done in remembrance of one of our founding members Vegegrow who passed away two years ago next month. It is truly a work of love.

Thank you to you both! I read that it ended up being a tribute piece to vegegrow. It was only because Imi also mentioned it started as a BOM that I wondered. It truly is spectacular!

Thank you ... I was literally finishing the Quilting the Saturday before I had to take it up to FOQ (2018) on the Monday!

That was the hot summer I had a broken foot and pretty much ALL i did was work on it inside as it evolved.

My then husband came down from the deck at one point to find me tearing the quilt apart as something had gone wrong ... He grabbed it from me and legged it upstairs with it, where of course I couldnt follow ... to give me time to calm down ... which I did.

In fact there are TWO places where it has been 'reconstructed' ... one where the embroidery went awry and one where I tore it ... If you can find those places ... I will send you a prize!

Done another one!

The camera has washed the colours out a bit - there is a lot more definition and graduation than the photo shows.

And look at this!  I'm not sure I've ever had a block match up to its size straight away with no trimming before!

I might look as though I'm talking to you, but inside my head I'm sewing.

Courthouse steps block for March.  :)



Couldn't bear to leave any of the colours out, so doubled up on them on each 'step'.
