My local quilt guild has a Challenge Quilt event each year - usually more than one. Each small challenge quilt has to be a certain size and is based on a particular theme. Here are two Challenge quilts that I made recently. The theme of the quilt on the left was SEASONS and the theme for the quilt on the right was TRIANGLES.
I made this small (12"x12") art quilt for the 2016 SAQA Benefit Auction . It's called, "Full Moon Over Stonehenge." I used a navy-blue speckled fabric for the night sky background. I bought some Stonehenge fabrics by Northcott that I used for the vertical sarsen stones and the horizontal lintel stone. The moon is a piece of very thin, silver lamé fabric, which I bonded to the background with Mistyfuse. Within the radiating quilting lines, I added some Swarovski crystals for stars. (It sold for $150.)
