QuiltCon 2019 ++ Quilt Submissions

Did you submit any quilts for QuiltCon 2019?  I submitted four this year and I am happy to say that I will have three quilts hanging in the show.  Here are my submissions and results:

1.  Mikado - accepted

I entered Mikado into the APQ two-color challenge category.  You could only use two colors in the quilt top, binding, and quilting thread.  It was difficult not to put a pop of color into the quilt top, but I am hoping the black and white striped fabric gives the same affect.  More pictures and information are in the Mikado post.

2.  Wooly Bear - rejected

I made Wooly Bear for the Michael Miller challenge category.  For this category you had to use at least two of the three selected hashtag prints along with a peach colored Cotton Couture solid.  You could add in additional Cotton Couture solids and hashtag prints.  More pictures and information are in the Wooly Bear post.

3.  Flew Away - accepted

I made Flew Away for my local Modern Quilt Guild's (Greenville MQG) challenge where we had to use a traditional block that's name started with the first initial of our first, middle, or last name.  This is my variation on the Beggar's Block.  I entered it into the small quilt category.  More pictures and information are in the Flew Away post.

4.  Ruminate - rejected

I was really on the fence with submitted Ruminate, I did not feel that it fit into the look and feel of the curated QuiltCon quilts, but I took a chance anyway and entered it into the small quilt category.  I started this quilt in a Densye Schimdt QuiltCon class in 2017 finally finished it this year.  I added a ton of quilting with different thread weights to give the quilt an interesting look.  More pictures and information are in the Ruminate post.

5.  Periodicity - MQG Pattern of the Month Exhibit

Periodicity will be hanging in the QuiltCon Pattern of the Month Exhibit.  It was the pattern for June and will be hung with all of the other monthly patterns available for free to all MQG members.  It also had the honor of hanging in the MQG Showcase during Quilt Market this fall.  More pictures and information are in the Periodicity post.

6.  (My son's quilt) Dorito-ish - accepted

My son was so excited to find out that his quilt, Dorito-ish, will be hanging in the Youth category at QuiltCon.  More pictures and information are in the Dorito-ish post.

I hope that you had good news on your submissions, I look forward to seeing all of the wonderful quilts in February!
