Art Quilts 2 Spotlight Challenge


One of my longarm quilting friends told me of this challenge for spotlight stores, you had to use their fabric for the quilt, the stems in the background had pink blossoms on them, so I put lots of silk flowers under tulle with angelinas fibers and shisha mirrors crystals, quilted it on my longarm and then discovered it was 2 inches to short, so the beaded braid went across the bottom...all bead by hand with colours that matched the body of the wall hanging...never got a place for this and think the winners where drawn from a hat, no notification of who or what won..a lot of work the prize was a trip for 2 to Houston quilt show..that would have been good but not meant to be..never mind will never enter another one of their shonky events.
