game of quilts challenge.secret stash

Here is my entry for the badass quilters america..game of quilts challenge
I love a challenge and love to push the boundries..This piece was inspired from the book "A dance with dragons" thus the round shape like the cover photo, a shield.

I calculated the area of a square 18x18 inches and made the circle the same area..

The shisha mirrors in the bottom of the piece represent the dragon eggs wedding gift...I quilted the piece then painted the quilting with irredescent paint..like tone on tone fabric.

I would like to say thanks to Kym Colgrave from Professional Quilting Sevices for enabling the aussie to participate.

wow after all this time
