Guild challenge -recycled modern The Lamp, My Light
The International Quilt Museum in Lincoln Ne. where our local guild meets joined our guild for a challenge. They have an exhibition up based off of use of feedsack fabrics and other reused textiles. They gave us 5 vintage quilt blocks to choose from to make something more modern but with recycled or other textiles. I used a black and white tea towel some a shirt, a skirt and some silk lining. The block I chose was the star block. I decided to do it in a QAYG method. cutting batting to various sizes to make the star more improv. Since it came together in a lantern shape that I love I felt it fit the bible quote from Matthew 5: 15-16 This is currently hanging with the guilds display at the IQM.
