My quilt is called Purple Play. It is a birthday quilt I made for a friend's daughter's golden birthday. My only instruction was to make it purple, and big enough for her full-queen bed. I had a lot of fun putting this together. I made the whole top while at a retreat last winter. Some of the retreat attendees gave me good feedback as to block placement and pattern. (You know how many options there are for Log Cabin.. a zillion! So their opinions were helpful.)
Later it was machine quilted by Diane who is my favorite pro quilter. She does beautiful work! Unfortunately, I do not have close-up photos of the quilting. Wish you could see how beautiful it is.
Purple Play is about 80" x 84".
Professionally quilted on a longarm.
Technique: Log Cabin
I am entering this quilt in two categories:
1) Bed Quilt
2) Professionally Quilted Quilt
Voting instructions will come next week. Meanwhile, have FUN cruising around the web looking at gorgeous quilts.
