Lacey River, Linen Quilt

This quilt was inspired in a workshop with Cindy Needham through Quilting Adventures (http://www.quilting-adventures.com/). The lace top was purchased in Moscow Russia, and laid on top of a batik purchased in Bali, Indonesia. I used the bouttis method to stuff yarn in the snake like, and celtic center pieces. I used 100% silk to free motion quilt the piece. Then I heavily beaded the quilt. Wow, it was a lot of work.

I entered the quilt in the Houston Quilt Guild Show, in the category, First Quilt in a Show. I was ecstatic to win 3rd.

Happy quilting . . . .
