Project Quilting 2019 Season 10.1


2019 starts Season 10 of Project Quilting hosted by Kim Persimon Dreams. The first challenge for the season was "Hope Springs Eternal". 

I did not have a resolution this year but in my head I want to use a lot of what I have and dig out my patterns and books and just have fun making stuff. Well when the challenge came last Sunday I thought that the Hula Girl pattern by Sharon over @Color girl Quilts fit the bill. I love the linking rings in this quilt. Well, truthfully I had a bit of trouble paper piecing them to size from my printer but now I love them. haha
The rings link in a way that allows everyone one to fit together, be together, side by side. Various low volume prints and solids in the back ground make the rings pop. Like the Olympic rings, I feel it represents everyone from everywhere coming together. I think that is hopeful.


I loved using the low volume fabrics for the Mystery QAL by Kim and I didn't get it finished before the PQ 10.1 started so why not finish two birds....
Worked great to put the mystery quilt on the back. 

The quilt finishes at 45" x 54" 
all fabrics from my stash
simple straight double line quilting

I thought today was going to be the first lqg sew day so I hurried and got my piece done. Now I wish I would have done more quilting and maybe I will do some hand quilting. Anyway the sew day was cancelled due to lots and lots of snow! 
Sooooo....soups on!


In other news....this week I received a complimentary copy of Curated Quilts Quarterly Quilt Journal
I am super excited and honored to have a quilt in the gallery.

I love how the solid fabrics in the rings and the low volume background look together. Beautiful finish!
Congratulations on your latest finish -- and for being included in the magazine! I still need to get my hands on the latest issue, and your quilt is all the more reason to order one. : )
