This quilt was intended for the Dear Stella fabric challenge at Quiltcon in 2013. Once the deadline for the quilt show passed I lost momentum and got distracted with other pretty, shiny quilty things. In October of this year I decided to contact a local long arm quilter, Gina Pina, to see if she could quilt it before Christmas. Lucky me! She could. I was able to finish the binding recently and last night showed it off at the Austin Modern Quilt Guild's show and tell. I also handed it off to one of the guild members organizing the San Saba County Quilt Show, which is taking place in a couple of weeks. The one thing I didn't do was take some photographs of the entire quilt. That's going to have to wait until after the quilt show. Once I have them I will post them and share the inspiration behind this quilt.
First quilt of the year…kind of.
