Featured Quilt - First Place Mixed/Other at Road to California 2025


Royal Treasure is a delectable doily quilt, from a series of doily quilts by Marilyn Badger, that has just one another award. After taking home the Best of Show Award at last year's Pacific International Quilt Festival, Royal Treasure has received 1st Place - Mixed/Other at Road to California 2025. It was made using "vintage doilies hand dyed by Wendy Richardson and fabrics by Paula Nadelstern, as well as Cherrywood Fabrics. Motifs from Paula's fabric were selected and appliquéd by machine. Several doilies were cut and appliquéd as well. Lots of machine and hand embroidery were added, as well as beads and crystals. Some painting was added as well to accent quilting and add color."

The Quilt Show Puzzle: Reflecting on Water

"Reflections" by Kathy McNeil


Reflections hangs in Kathy's dining room and is the piece that she can just sit and look at in the quiet and feel serene. Kathy loves koi ponds, and Reflections is her third koi pond quilt. The quilt celebrates Kathy's favorite color, which she says is water, or, more specifically, all the colors represented in water. The title of the quilt is very appropriate, beyond the literal meaning of the reflections captured from the koi pond, as water also reflects all colors, tying back in to why it is her favorite. She says, "Light can dance, it can shimmer, it can transform. Trying to capture the most elusive element was the goal of this piece. Quilting gives me time to reflect on the big and small things in my life."
