Featured Quilt - Second Place Group Quilts at Paducah 2023
Gyrolicious by QUTI (Quilting Under The Influence) won Second Place in Group Quilts (Sponsored by the Grace Company) at AQS QuiltWeek Paducah 2023. The group, consisting of Linda Brown, Linda Finney, and Marilyn Badger, based their quilt on a pattern by Claudia Meyers. For those unaware, a gyro is "a
spinning mass that rotates around its axis," so it's no surprise that the quilt was named so aptly. With several whirring cogs and gears meshing seamlessly to form a smooth-flowing image from one corner of the quilt to the next, this quilt, like the group who made it, is one smooth-running machine.
