This quilt: ALL IN A DAY'S WORK was created by my quilting group, The Blockheads. We did it as an entry in Piece O'Cake Designs contest for one of their new books. I designed the layout to show the colors of daylight with the sun rays radiating around the garden.
Each Blockhead did the pattern on their block and returned it to me for piecing. It was quilted by Joann Farley.
The Blockheads are PJ Secrist, Toni Sharp, Charlene Arrowsmith, Karla Walisky, Nancy Dean, Barbara Odland, Peggy Orgill, Miki Bode, and myself, Lynn Koeppen. It was a fun collaboration!
Oh what a gorgeous spring garden! I can almost smell its fragrance!

ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful garden quilt! How I love the name "Blockheads"! Very clever. I had to pop over and see who remembered me from Pat Sloan's Spring Fling. I thought it might be you. I remember hearing you call in on one of her radio shows. It's fun to hear the voices of those that post to the group. :-)
