Blogger's Quilt Festival - Large Quilt Category

Amy at Amy's Creative Side is once again hosting Blogger's Quilt Festival.  It's a great opportunity for bloggers to share their work and to be inspired by others.



I am going to enter my Gravity quilt in the Large Quilt Category (for quilts measuring 241 inches or more all around).  Measuring approximately 388 inches, she's the biggest quilt I've ever made.  It was a great way to end 2015.

I made Gravity by following a QAL hosted by Myra @ Busy Hands Quilts.  You can read about my journey of making Gravity here.


I tried a new quilting motif.  My curves are not perfect, but I'm pleased with how it turned out.


Gravity makes me happy and lives on my bed.


I made matching pillows:



I encourage you to head over to Blogger's Quilt Festival to see all the wonderful quilts and to vote.

    I saw another Gravity quilt just this morning and man! It is hard not to drag out my kit and rulers and dive in...but I have a few obligations first...Glad this one lives on your bed; it is stunning. And the pillows, yep I'm with Preeti, crowning glory.

    I'm so glad you entered this quilt. This is one of my favourites of your quilts (notice I said "one of" because I can't pick just one).
