Description

The center block of "Fairy Dust" was begun in a class taught by Anita Shackleford. A friend suggested it would look nice set on point. I left it on my design wall, and *poof* look what happened. The quilt top is entirely done by hand, as is the quilting.

Description

This quilt represents the friendships made during my long association with the Prairie Heritage Quilters. Inspired by a photo of "Central Medallion" by A.Y. in 1937. Quilting relationships are represented by the yellow ribbon for those passed, the pink garland for a growing circle of friends, and each quilted leaf is a new student. Original quilting designs inspired by the silverware of another quilter. Hand appliqué, hand-guided machine quilted using home sewing machine.

Source of Design: Appliqué A.Y. 1937
