Featured Quilt - Third Place Pieced at Houston 2022
Alhambra at Sunset by Nancy Goodman won Third Place in the Pieced category at the 2022 Houston International Quilt Festival. It's no wonder that Nancy's quilt took home one of the piecing awards, as this beautifully machine pieced and quilted work is filled with a different and exquistely pieced design in every nook and cranny.

The Quilt Show Puzzle: Waves on the Crystal Sea

"Crystal Mer" by Sheila Frampton Cooper
Crystal Mer was
inspired by the view from Sheila's studio in France where she spent most of her time while living there. Her studio faced the largest bay in the Mediterranean, and she would just look out the window and ponder what was going on under the water. In addition to the bay's inspiration, Sheila also wanted to make a small-scale piece that focused on micro-piecing. Having not been able to micro-piece for a long time, something Sheila loves to do, she was happy when the opportunity arose to do it with this quilt.
