It is time once again for the Blogger's Quilt Festival! My entry is my "Stretch" mini wall hanging.
Finished quilt measures : 19″x 19″
Special techniques used : hand applique, beading embellishments
Quilted by : hand quilted by me
Best Category : Applique Quilt, Hand Quilt, Scrap Quilt
It was during the Blogger's Festival Fall 2011 that I realized that I was in a design slump and needed to expand my skills. I declared that 2012 would be my year to try all new designs and new techniques. So far, it has been great trying new things. New things are good - but maybe in 2013, I might declare it to be the year where I finish things (LOL).
My word for this year is "Stretch" and I made this mini as part of the Lets Get Acquainted Blog Hop which I wrote about here.
I think it is also interesting to look back at my previous Blogger Festival entries and see how I have stretched my quilting in a new direction.
For great quilty inspiration, please check out the Blogger's Festival entries at Amy's Creative Side.
