| Challenge Fabric and Rules |
Here is my quilt for the Appalachian Art Center's 2012 Quilt Challenge. To the right is the packet I purchased for their fundraiser. I wasn't immediatly inspired to use these 3 fabrics, but carried them to my stash of fabric to look for something to go with these pretty batiks. I was sure I did not want to make a pastel quilt with these pink and purple batiks but decided to challenge myself further by deciding not to buy any new fabric for this. I decided upon the spiral, stole the sunset-ish fabric from my landscape bin and started designing. Credit to Mrs. Haddock (my math expert and daughter) for giving me a name to google to find this geometric wonder. Also credit to quilter Barbara Olson who did an HGTV program that started the spiral investigation. This is the second spiral design I've done, I'm still facinated by them so there will probably be more.
