I had to pull an all nighter - which I haven't done since college - but I finished my Scraps to Treasures Challenge quilt. I can easily say that this quilt has more quilting on it then any other I've done. I wanted to share a few pictures of it with you before I carry my tired and sore body back to bed.
The challenge was to use at least a 2" square of fabric from each of about 120 different 6" square fabrics we received from participants. We were allowed to add a certain amount of extra fabric based on complicated calculations. It also had to be a minimum of 36" x 48" and finished by the time our host awoke this morning. (We had to email her our pictures.) Tomorrow the HGTV Quilting & Needlework Forum will have a show of the quilts by all the participants (around 45). You should stop by and check it out.
I called my quilt "Deconstructed". Pretty obvious why, huh?
Here's another close up of the quilting on the floor boards and baseboard. The wall isn't crooked like it appears; that's just from my dear husband holding up. So leave a comment and let me know what you think...
