JoAnnHoffman Posted September 17, 2006 Report Share Posted September 17, 2006 This quilt made it into the Hoffman Challenge traveling show. My girlfriend Vi Colombe made the top and I quilted it. It ended up having a beaded mounded circle applique in the center. She named it Betty's raspberry star. Betty was in the hospital at the time and I quilted her name in the wild background. Betty is fine now. We're excited about making it in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

birgitquilts Posted September 17, 2006 Report Share Posted September 17, 2006 Congratulations, JoAnn! As I was so sure that this one would be a winner, I have been looking for it when the winning quilts were published... My entry (see pic below) made it into the travelling collections as well. Best, Birgit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quiltaholi_518 Posted September 18, 2006 Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 These two of mine also will travel (better than being sent back I guess) The shame is, the two collections I am in (B and C) will be nowhere near me during the year..........

JoAnnHoffman Posted September 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 I love those chunky feathers with no spines in the black area. I've been having fun doing those too. Great job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newpersononblock Posted September 18, 2006 Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 I love the colors in this quilt. I always begin my quilts as pastel and somehow they always end up bold. I would have never thought to put these colors together and I Love It. The whole thing is fabulous! Thanks for the idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferret Posted September 19, 2006 Report Share Posted September 19, 2006 Gosh, what amazing quilts. I love the circular one, I'd love to see a close up of the beaded center. Brigit I love the sort of feathers in the corners of the center part. Is there a proper name for those? Ferret Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
