Fabricating Faces Class

I took a class at QSC (Quilter's of SC) this past weekend that was wonderful!. Marilyn Wall taught us how to take a photo and make it into a work of art using just 4 fabrics. No painting, just fabric. My daughter took a great photo of Isaac, my grandson, and I was able to make this from the photo in about 9 hrs. The lightest fabric is a little too light, but the teacher said it was the best ear she'd every seen!

Ribbons

This month I've added 5 more blue ribbons to my bulletin board.
One was for my Earlene Fowler duffle bag and tote at the Nimble Thimbles Quilt Show in Fountain Inn. I also got four at the SC State Fair for the FPQG Show quilt, a new sailboat quilt, Black and White Lime Squeeze, and a blue leaf purse.
I've filled one bulletin board and have a second one that I need to spray paint black before I put it up in my quilting studio.
