It is essentially a Round Robin except I chose the 'free form' category so my group will not necessarily be doing a full round each turn on the starter block...more exciting that way, right? Here is my starter block:
Liberated Baskets...some of these I made during the class with Gwen Marston, but others I did to fit into my starter square.
My group did not set a size for the starter block, but I have a feeling I'm pushing maximum limit at nearly 20 inches square.
And another item of note is that I sent a small quilt top off to be quilted by Krista Withers!! If you have not checked out her work please stop by her flickr stream and do it now!!
Im super happy to be starting the year off with 2 projects from my Gwen Marston classes!
I'm REALLY liking both of these projects Jenny! Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteBoth you projects are fantastic. Nice job. Hugs
ReplyDeleteI was actually chatting with Krista a little bit ago and she said your quilt top had just come in the mail. She said it's incredible! Your round robin start is pretty fun too.
ReplyDeletelove that solids quilt - oh would I love to take a class or even get my hands on a Gwen Marston book!
ReplyDeleteOooh, your round robin is going to be fun to see! I haven't blogged about Gwen Marston either -- must do that. And funny -- Krista isn't a very common name (that's my sister's name) and here you have a Krista quilter and a different Krista commenter!
ReplyDeleteOkay...here I sit green with envy again!!! So glad you were able to take a class with Gwen and I can't wait to hear about it...I love the start of your basket quilt and the abstract quilt is over the moon fantastic!
ReplyDeleteI would love to have the chance for a class with Gwen! Can't wait to hear all about it - your projects are awesome!
ReplyDeleteLove the whimsy baskets! And your solids top is amazing - so playful. Can't wait to hear more of your classes with Gwen ; )
