Just when I thought I couldn’t get any more excited about being a finalist in a quilt challenge, I learned that my entry in the Hoffman Fabric Challenge was also selected. When I first saw their fabric for 2016, the digital butterflies, I wanted to work with all the variations so acquired pieces from each. Set in a convergence style, then cut and shaped to add the dimensional butterflies and taggies with strands of sparkling beads and crystals, it shows such joy that I smile every time I look at it. Quilting uses different colors of Aurifil threads with “Joy swirl” patterns and pebbles to show fun, movement and a pathway. This art piece is on it’s way to California now for final judging and the amazing opportunity of being on tour throughout the country for the next year. ‘Way Way cool too!! Now what should I work on???
