Gwen's Beaver Island retreat: Meet Linda

Meet Linda

Linda showing her work at the show and tell

Linda showing  and telling us about making her liberated flying geese

close up of the vase and applique detail on the flower...."look a G for Gwen :0)" she told me.
Well why not turn the outcome of a liberated  applique into a celebration of being at a retreat with Gwen :0).

auditioning the flying geese, while Mickey's red border fabric shows on the left, we shared design wall space and by the end of the retreat space was getting tight.

 



Gwen's retreat brought quilters from all over, meet Linda from North Carolina.  Linda brought a piece already appliqued for the center of her medallion.  We all loved the fabric she chose for the vase and I think most of us asked her what the name of the fabric is and where she got it.  She has had it for sometime and doesn't know where she got it.  I think if we could have found it we all would have bought some on the spot.  It has great colors and depth and for a vase it is simply perfect!    Another beautiful start to  our challenge of making a medallion quilt, Happy sewing Linda I hope you finish this piece,  Kim
