Featured Quilt - Whosoever Holds This Hammer

Thor, God of Thunder by Yvonne Skodt was featured in the Art-Whimsical category at Houston 2016. Yvonne says of her inspiration for the quilt, "My husband found this black and white pencil drawing of Thor, the mythological God of Thunder by Abrar Ajmal, on the internet. I enjoyed making it as a pictorial quilt of him."

The Quilt Show Puzzle: Waiting For Spring To Come
"Waiting Out Winter" by Linda Beach

Linda made Waiting Out Winter the last winter that she spent in Alaska, where she was anxious to move on and get out of the cold and snow. In Linda's mind, while the tree is dormant and waiting for winter to end, there is still life inside waiting for spring to return, and that is why the tree and its branches are rainbow-colored.
