My Turn for On the Road
Monday was a great start for this hop/challenge!! I'm looking forward to seeing all the rest of the inspiring work from this group of bloggers! Many thanks to Carol of Just Let Me Quilt for hosting!!
I decided to be brave and share the most likely one and only quilt I have made or will make from a photo. This is from a photo I took while hiking the Presque Isle River trail to Lake Superior in Upper Peninsula, MI, in July, 2022. I took a 2-session class at my LQS, Stewart's Sewing Machines, Mt. Zion, IL, at which we were encouraged by our super-talented teacher, Karen Edwards, to find a photo to reproduce. I really liked this photo so... Perhaps an easier one would have been better. Anyhow, I got all the fabric on the piece right away and a week or so later did some quilting on it. Even did a small practice piece first to see how it would work. Then this hung on my design wall for several months. Finally, in April, I decided to start quilting again and get the thing done. Hooray, it's finished! And I don't think this is for me. I'll leave it to Karen to make quilts from photos, and I will do my thing with more traditional and a few modern quilts.

On the Road Again THIS WEEK
The blog hop/challenge On the Road Again, hosted by Carol of Just Let Me Quilt, will be starting in one week!
This piece has nothing to do with traveling or being on the road, but here is one of my latest finishes. It is one of Ricky Tims' Convergence quilts. This version is called Divide and Conquer. I love the bright colors. I thought too much yellow ended up together in the center, so I made spirals to fill the spaces. Then I quilted the whole thing with my walking foot, kind of following curves. I'm ready to make another one after I finish the project I just started...
Below is our list of participants for On the Road Again--I am scheduled for Tuesday, May 21.
I expect a fun week of stories and inspiration, as usual!
Remember to check out everyone!
