Featured Quilt - Fun In The Summertime For All

Summer Fun by Marina Landi won First Place - Wall Quilts: Stationary Machine Quilted (Sponsored by Baby Lock USA presented by Calico Country Sew & Vac) at AQS Quiltweek 22 in Paducah. Marina had this to say about the quilt's inspiration, "I think that the joy of this boy in this moment of play is always contagious. And when that joy is presented to people all over the world, and it is still rewarded, happiness is very great. Thank you to everyone who somehow helps me and accompany me on this journey!!!"
