Some of you may have heard of the contest of Sewvivor that has happened over the past couple of years over at Family Ever After. Well this year it is Quilters Edition!!
I have decided to enter into the contest and for my audition I have decided to enter my Flight of the Seagulls quilt. (It was between this one and my Modern Mini, hexagon quilt) I looked through my photos of different quilts and this one is still one of my top favorites. I love how the geese (seagulls) move across the quilt in an all over way. And how they are all different sizes.
I designed this quilt. Piece by piece I watched it grow on my design wall. The background is not just a single piece of fabric, it has been chopped up and sewn back together to give it a different texture.
The quilt is quilted in rolling waves. Even the back has pinwheels of flying geese. Here is my original post for my Flight of the Seagulls quilt.
I hope I make it as a contestant for Sewvivor! I can't wait to see all the quilty goodness that comes from the entries!
Keeping my fingers crossed!

Carolyn, I absolutely LOVE that quilt! I love the background fabric and the colors you used for the geese! (i secretly LOVE everything geesy)
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy for you that you decided to enter the contest. You do beautiful work and you have very creative quilts!
If you ever run out of "text" prints, give me a holler...I have more than any one sane person needs!
I almost had to ring your doorbell yesterday (Mon). Luna was getting hot on our walk and plopped herself down right across the street from your house and would not move...... I was thinking I might have to ask for help EX: cookie, doggy treat LOL But she popped up and we moved on. This dog walking is killing me LOL

I love the low volume. The flying geese are super.
