Quilts from my Past

I participated in an “ugly” fabric challenge in 2009.  The challenge fabric was roses strewn across a green background.  I fussy cut the roses and wove them around a “wicker” trellis.  The roses are machine appliqued/quilted with invisible thread.  The trellis is stitched in place with a small satin stitch.  It is then quilted 1/4″ inside each of the spaces created by the trellis.

The quilt measures 15 3/4″ wide by 23 1/2″ long.  It hangs over my work computer.

I’ve entered this quilt in Quilting Gallery’s weekly Quilters’ Show and Tell.  Please take a look at the quilts and vote for your favorite.
