Featured Quilt - Best Hand Workmanship Traditional at PIQF 2024
Tickled Pink by Linda Roy won Best Hand Workmanship - Traditional at Pacific International Quilt Festival 2024. The title of Linda's quilt is very apropos, as we ourselves were just "tickled pink" when we saw it and fell in love with its wonderful use of color and hand quilting. Linda says of her quilt, "Inspired by antique carnation bed rugs of 1773, 1807 and one hooked style of 1802. Original designed and made for Karen with love in her favorite color, pink." |
