Sweet Home Quilt Co.

Thanks to Carolyn G. and Kathy J. for sharing their beautiful quilts with us this week!

This is Carolyn’s American Trilogy, Tribute to Elvis quilt that she designed for her guild’s challenge. The challenge was to depict an Elvis song with the quilt design…I am wild about Carolyn’s interpretation! She won second place in the challenge, too! Here’s a close up:

The three panels underneath the Confederate panel have the words to the three songs in the American Trilogy…I can just hear Elvis singing those songs! (BTW, I am a huge Elvis fan!)

This is Kathy’s One Block Wonder made with the Lotus panel (if you’ve been in the shop this is the oriental panel in the Grand Central quilt sample that is hanging behind the cutting table.) Kathy had a vision for those panels that I just couldn’t see…but WOW! Great eye, Kathy! Here’s a close up of a few of the blocks:

Beautimous!

Hope you enjoyed the show! We’d love to see what you’re working on, too.
